Counter-UAS (C-UAS) for Airport Protection
Technologies to detect and mitigate unauthorized drone activity near airports.

Counter-UAS systems use radar, RF detection, electro-optical sensors, and defeat mechanisms to protect airports—while requiring careful governance to avoid interference with legitimate communications and civil liberties.
