TillOnAIR is an autonomous detect-to-defeat C-UAS system from ParaZero Technologies that combines ground-based detection, mission control, a fast quadcopter interceptor, and the DefendAir Net Pod. Designed as the perimeter-defense layer within the DefendAir product family, the system detects and tracks an incoming drone from the ground before automatically launching an interceptor and guiding it toward the target’s live track.
Targeting does not depend on GPS, an onboard seeker, a camera, or ground beacons, with guidance instead handled through secured communications between the ground control system, interceptor, and Net Pod. This architecture also enables physical interception of fiber-optic-controlled, pre-programmed, and autonomous drones that do not rely on an RF command link.
During an engagement, the interceptor is directed above the target before releasing a non-explosive net as the hostile drone passes below. The interceptor then returns intact for installation of another Net Pod and subsequent relaunch. A single ground system can control multiple interceptors for multiple incoming threats, while each detection unit provides a 100° field of view; four units deliver 360° coverage and form a 50–100 m protection zone around an asset.
With an approximate system weight of 15 kg and a field setup time of around 20 minutes, TillOnAIR can support expeditionary or permanent installations. Its reusable interceptor architecture limits each engagement to the expenditure of a Net Pod, while captured drones can remain largely intact for forensic and intelligence analysis.
