D-Fend Solutions has launched a maritime-tailored version of its EnforceAir2 counter-UAS system. The new EnforceAir2 Maritime offers radio frequency (RF) cyber-based, non-kinetic, non-jamming takeover capabilities for unmanned aircraft operating in coastal and open-sea environments. The product is aimed at military and port authorities seeking to spot, pinpoint, and seize control of rogue drones without disrupting critical communications.
Ra’anana, Israel, and McLean, Va.— “Naval and maritime counter-drone operations bring unique challenges that must be addressed without compromising safety or advanced communications. EnforceAir2 Maritime, developed with insight gained through our deep experience with this sector, achieves this by supporting a scalable and non-disruptive system to detect, locate, and take control of rogue drones in maritime environments, ensuring operational continuity and protection for critical naval and maritime assets,” says Yaniv Benbenisti, president and chief product officer, D-Fend Solutions.
Built to perform under salt spray, high winds, and corrosive conditions, the maritime version relies on the company’s RF-cyber takeover technology to neutralize threatening drones while preserving radio, radar, and navigation links. D-Fend Solutions highlights that this approach minimizes collateral impact on other systems and maintains continuous operations across ports, harbors, and shipping routes.
EnforceAir2 Maritime is engineered for easy integration into existing naval defense networks and offers a compact footprint for both shipboard and shore-based installations. Its modular design supports rapid scaling from standalone deployments to networked coverage across multiple platforms, delivering flexible counter-drone defenses tailored to varying mission sizes.
Key features of the EnforceAir2 Maritime solution include:
- EnforceAir2 SDR – Maritime Version: Equipped with revised, maritime-tested advanced materials and designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions at sea.
- Radome Antenna (Maritime Version): An ultra-wide-band antenna offering broad frequency range support and 360 degrees of azimuth coverage for ground-level and shipboard deployments.
- Maritime Cradles: Rugged, MIL-STD 810H–rated mounts for the SDR unit and antenna, built to withstand extreme conditions and allow rapid redeployment.
- Maritime-Grade Cables: Halogen-free RF cables compliant with stringent naval standards, built for reliable performance in saltwater and high-moisture environments.
D-Fend Solutions expects EnforceAir2 Maritime to serve as a core element in modern naval defense, protecting naval fleets, offshore platforms, and coast guard operations from UAV threats.
