D-Fend Solutions has formed a new agreement with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) under its Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) programme.
The programme will focus on conducting extensive evaluation of D-Fend Solutions’ counter-uncrewed aircraft systems (C-UAS) technologies in various US Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) test beds.
The testing will be conducted at various selected government airfields, commercial airports, and other facilities. These test events will evaluate the capabilities of the EnforceAir C-UAS detection, tracking, and identification system on a continuous basis in an airport environment, with the system operational to gather data on drones when airspace regulations are violated. The test data will be analysed and test reports generated.
Zohar Halachmi, Chairman and CEO of D-Fend Solutions, said the “expertise and rigorous standards of the NSWC PCD make them an exceptional partner” in the effort to fulfil evolving airport security demands.
The programme builds on D-Fend’s participation and completion of the US Federal Aviation Administration’s Airport UAS Detection and Mitigation Section 383 research programme at Atlantic City International Airport and Syracuse Hancock International Airport.
