Mitigation

Vendor Profile: Rheinmetall

Rheinmetall assessment. German defence prime with Skyranger and HEL ambitions. What the kinetic and directed energy C-UAS portfolio delivers — and why the European giant is late to the game.

Vendor Profile: Sentrycs (Ondas Holdings)

Sentrycs assessment. Israeli protocol-level C-UAS acquired by Ondas Holdings. What the technology delivers for airports and sensitive sites — and where the approach has limits.

Vendor Profile: RTX (Raytheon)

RTX assessment. The largest C-UAS contractor by revenue. Coyote interceptors, KuRFS radar, and the LIDS architecture — what the defence prime delivers and where it struggles with agility.

Kongsberg assessment. Norwegian defence prime with NASAMS pedigree. Where the air defence giant fits in counter-UAS — and why its approach differs from the pure-plays.

Vendor Profile: Fortem Technologies

Fortem Technologies assessment. Radar-first C-UAS with a kinetic interceptor. What TrueView and SkyDome deliver — and where the architecture has limits.

Vendor Profile: Rafael Advanced Defense Systems

Rafael assessment. Drone Dome, C-Guard, Iron Beam. The most combat-proven C-UAS vendor — what operational experience reveals and where export complexity constrains.
