Rostec has Presented a Log-Range System for Fighting Swarm of Drones

Ruselectronics Holding has completed the development of anti-drone system capable of suppressing drone control within up to 5 km. The equipment helps to suppress multiple channels simultaneously to ensure protection against attack of more than one UAV, including those flying from different directions.  

New Serp-VS5 system developed by Vektor Research Institute, Ruselectronics holding, operates in five frequency bands – from 900Mhz to 5.8 GHz. This enables the system to be used not only against civil, but also special-purpose drones.  

The equipment suppresses the drone control channel, breaks the operator link, disables the navigation equipment, disorients the drone and thwarts the flight mission. The system suppresses GPS, GLONASS and Beidou signals (in L1, L2 and L5 ranges) and also breaks drone control via Wi-Fi. 

The system can “see” drone intruders in a 360 degree sector on the horizontal axis. The function of viewing angle division into sectors with independent operation modes allows to use other drones, if necessary, when the system is running, for example, for power transmission line or pipeline monitoring. Communication with the system control station is provided via Ethernet. 

Vektor Research Institute has previously launched Serp-VS system with a range of 3 km in two frequency bands.
