Counter-drone activity as a system

  • 1 Faculty of Military Science and Officer Training – National University of Public Service, Hungary

Abstract

However, several counter-drone solutions exist, these are individual, isolated means of countering drones. The aim of the paper is to sum up the counter-commercial-drone solutions and to highlight the possible synergic effects of employing these assets as a system. The author reckons that during the formulation of counter-drone systems, the basic tenets of defensive counter-air and airspace control also can be applied. In the paper, the expression of drone means a remotely piloted aircraft system which can be purchased from commercial stores or from internet based stores.
