Unauthorized drones pose an increasing security risk: They penetrate protected areas, endanger the security of people and disrupt operations. Rohde & Schwarz and TRUMPF SE & Co. KG have therefore decided to effectively counter these new risks posed by unmanned objects with a joint, domestically manufactured anti-drone solution.
The technology companies, both leading in their fields, will combine existing technologies for this purpose. TRUMPF is market leader in machine tools and lasers for industrial manufacturing. With its solutions, Rohde & Schwarz enables a safer and connected world. A wide range of products for protecting critical infrastructure has been part of the company’s portfolio for years. The collaboration combines the state-of-the-art counter-drone solution from Rohde & Schwarz and radar sensing with the innovative laser technology from TRUMPF. Rohde & Schwarz will integrate the TRUMPF high-energy laser system into a complete drone defense ecosystem that can effectively detect, track and neutralize unauthorized drones.
Dr. Alexander Orellano, Executive Vice President Technology Systems at Rohde & Schwarz, says: "We are proud to partner with TRUMPF to offer a sovereign solution for drone defense. This collaboration leverages the strengths of both companies to address critical security needs. Investing in European defense, and specifically counter-drone technology, is of utmost importance."
Dr. Hagen Zimer, TRUMPF Executive Board member responsible for laser technology, explains: "Our laser technology, our expertise in beam guidance and shaping, and our internally anchored supply chain of system-critical subcomponents offer a highly innovative solution for drone defense. Combined with the drone defense expertise of Rohde & Schwarz, we can deliver a truly effective and integrated solution for protecting critical infrastructure and securing sensitive areas."
The partnership between the privately owned technology companies, both with an awareness of social responsibility, provides a comprehensive solution that can meet the changing challenges posed by unmanned objects. The combined expertise of both companies will enable customers a sovereign and technologically advanced defense against drone-based threats.
