The Defense Estonia Cluster has developed a Baltic drone wall concept, reports The Baltic Times.
“The drone wall is a collaborative initiative at the level of discussions between Poland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, aimed at strengthening the eastern border of the European Union and NATO,” the article states.
“Autonomous surveillance systems enriched with artificial intelligence (AI) are needed for continuous monitoring; integrated counter-drone systems (C-UAS) are necessary for neutralising drone threats; multilayer sensor networks are needed for detecting and monitoring threats in the air, land, and water; automated interceptor drones deployed along the border are necessary for rapid response and countering hostile drones; mobile counter-drone systems and platforms are needed for flexible and rapid countermeasures in a changing environment.”
The Baltic Times continues that all sensor and mobile unit data will be aggregated into a central C2 command and control system that provides a real-time operational overview of the entire border. “As this border runs through multiple countries, the system will be designed to be able to integrate third-party sensors, communication networks and defence systems, ensuring seamless interoperability between different countries.”
The article says DefSecIntel Solutions, Rantelon, Marduk, Lendurai, Hevi Optronics, Frankenburg Technologies and Telekonta are involved in the Baltic drone wall concept.
