Drone defense solutions company Dedrone unveiled DedroneDefender this Thursday (13). Capable of interrupting the signal and forcing drones to land. DedroneDefender is 55 cm long and weighs 3.4 kg, in the form of a pistol. Designed for use in urban environments, anti-drone weapons complement the DroneDefender line of military equipment.

Equipment capable of stopping a drone is nothing new. In fact, Anatel has already approved a giant version of this weapon in Brazil. A distinctive feature of the new Dedron weapon is its pistol-like format. According to the company, DedroneDefender presents civilian and police use in operations where there is a need to maintain a drone-free airspacewithout damaging radio signals.

The novelty complements other Dedrone solutions, such as the DroneDefender line of weapons – larger versions of vehicles with dimensions similar to machine guns or rifles used in strategic military operations.

DroneDefender is ideal for urban use.

With a significant increase in the use of drones as weapons in conflict situations, such as what happens during the invasion of Ukraine, anti-drone solutions become essential defensive measures.

Dedrone CEO Aditya Devarakonda comments that DedroneDefender is a technological solution that is easy to carry and provides effective control over drones. “Dedrone Defender empowers law enforcement and is a vital multilayered defense tool. It is easy to implement and use to mitigate the effects of drone actions.” Combined with the company’s other solutions, such as DedroneTracker, a tool that can track drones and identify threats, the weapon is an effective method of keeping people safe in cities.

The DedroneDefender system uses a guidance function that can only direct the signal to the aircraft and avoid interference with radio signals as well as Wi-Fi networks. In addition, the “antidron” can be controlled remotely via a smartphone application. For some time. company did not disclose the price of the device and when it will be available on the market. However, we will soon see how the gun is used for security during concerts and large events.
