SUPPLIER SPOTLIGHT

DroneShield has announced the release of its DroneGun Tactical portable counter-UAS (unmanned aerial system) product. The DroneGun Tactical is not intended to supercede DroneShield’s previous product, the DroneGun MKII, but has been designed for users with a different set of requirements.

The product was designed following comprehensive international military end-user trials, with a number of key features, including:

No backpack – the product is entirely self contained within the rifle body, whilst maintaining light weight and long effective range (over 1km)
Addition of 433Mhz and 915Mhz frequencies to 2.4GHz ISM, 5.8GHz ISM and GNSS L2, ensuring complete effectiveness across drone models
Ergonomic body and controls
Further alignment with standard military specifications, including standardised NATO military battery power
