The UAS threat is no longer asymmetric

Commercial drones modified for warfare, coordinated swarm attacks, and low-cost loitering munitions have fundamentally changed the threat environment. Conventional air defence was not built for this.

Pinnac's counter-UAS portfolio addresses every layer of the threat — from early detection and classification to soft-kill jamming and directed energy to hard-kill kinetic intercept. Each system operates independently or integrates into the C-UAS command architecture.

Why Existing Systems Fail
01

Conventional radar misses small, slow, low targets

Air defence radar is optimised for fast, high-altitude threats. A 2kg commercial drone at 50m altitude flying at 40km/h is effectively invisible to most legacy systems.

02

Swarm saturation overwhelms point-defence systems

A single interceptor missile or gun system can engage one target at a time. A 48-unit swarm expends that defence in seconds and continues with 47 remaining units.

03

GPS spoofing defeats navigation-dependent countermeasures

Many C-UAS systems rely on GPS to prosecute their own intercept trajectory. An adversary spoofing the local GPS environment defeats both the threat and the response simultaneously.

Tier 1 — Detect

Find it before it's a threat

Multi-sensor detection — radar, acoustic, RF, and optical — fused by ATLAS AI to classify and track any UAS within the engagement envelope within 0.1 seconds of acquisition. No single sensor dependency.

Tier 2 — Disrupt

Sever the link, not just the drone

RF jamming, GPS spoofing, and datalink override options that neutralise the threat without kinetic engagement — preserving the airspace for friendly operations and avoiding collateral risk.

Tier 3 — Destroy

Hard kill when soft kill isn't enough

Kinetic interceptor drones, directed energy laser systems, and net-capture platforms for threats that cannot be electronically defeated — GPS-independent, autonomous, and effective against swarms.

All counter-UAS systems are available for technical briefing and live demonstration to vetted defence partners.
