INNOVATION DRAWS INTERNATIONAL INTEREST
Counter-
unmanned aircraft systems must be modular, open architecture and scalable to evolve with the threat.
document to transition C-UAS fixed site and semi-fixed site from a quick-reaction capability to a program of record.
CONCLUSION The international demonstration was largely successful. Sixteen countries attended and witnessed eight effective scenarios employing the LIDS family of systems. Scenarios included electronic warfare kills and kinetic kills from both fixed site and M-LIDS configurations. Modern warfare is leading to an increasing urgency for C-UAS solutions and IF/RCO estimates significant demand for procure- ment of C-UAS leading to an increasing number of foreign military sales cases and foreign military funding cases in the next 10 years.
