NMX-CDS-360 · ENGINEERED TO ORDER — COUNTER-DRONE (C-UAS) PRIME INTEGRATION & PLATFORM

See the drone. Stop the drone.

Name: Counter-Drone (C-UAS) System - Prime Integration & Platform
Brand: Neometrix

A layered counter-drone (C-UAS) system — detect, decide, defeat — that protects a force, base or site from hostile drones and swarms. A sensor suite (radar, RF, electro-optical) sees the drone, command-and-control classifies and decides, and a layered soft-kill or hard-kill effector stops it. Neometrix is the prime-integration and platform partner: we build the mobile or fixed platform, the silent-watch power, the protection and the systems integration; the sensors, the effector and the C2 software are specialist / government-furnished sub-systems we integrate. Engineered to order — no specific delivered system is claimed on this page.

Overview

Cheap drones. Real threat.

A small drone costs very little; a swarm of them can watch, harass or attack a base, a convoy or a critical site. Defending against them needs a layered counter-drone (C-UAS) system — one that can see the drone, decide what it is and whether to act, and then stop it. No single box does all three well, so a real system layers sensors, command-and-control and defeat effectors — and mounts them on a platform that can go where the threat is and stay powered.

Fig · 02 The detection layer — radar, RF and EO/IR sensors on a stabilised mount — specialist sensors, integrated; illustrative, not a delivered installation

Detect, decide, defeat. Detection layers a radar, an RF scanner and an electro-optical / infra-red camera so a small, slow, low target is actually seen; command-and-control tracks it, classifies friend-or-foe and gives the operator a decision; and the defeat layer stops it — a soft-kill option (denying or taking over its links) or a hard-kill option (an interceptor or a net). We describe these at the capability level only.

We build the platform and integrate the system. Neometrix’s role is the prime integration and the platform: the mobile or fixed carrier, the stabilised pointing, the silent-watch power, the ballistic and environmental protection, and the mechanical, electrical and data integration that turns a set of sub-systems into one fielded system.

Honest about what is ours. The sensors, the defeat effector and the C2 software are specialist or government-furnished sub-systems from established makers and defence laboratories — we integrate them, we do not build them. What we build is everything that carries, powers, protects and connects them.

A counter-drone kill chain is only as good as the platform that carries it into the field and keeps it powered on watch. The sensors and the effector are specialist; the platform, the power and the integration are ours.

The Drone Threat

Cheap, many, and dangerous

Small drones and swarms threaten forces, bases, convoys and critical sites — cheap to field, hard to see, able to watch or attack. A layered C-UAS system is the defensive answer, and it has to be mobile and powered to matter.

Detect, Decide, Defeat

A layered system, not a single box

Detection (radar / RF / EO), command-and-control (track, identify, decide) and a layered defeat option (soft-kill or hard-kill) — described at capability level. No single sensor or effector covers every drone, so the system layers them.

We Integrate & Field It

Prime integrator + platform + power

Honest split: Neometrix builds the platform, silent-watch power, pointing, protection and integration; the sensors, the effector and the C2 software are specialist / government-furnished. Offered engineered-to-order; no delivered system claimed.

Architecture

The kill chain, and the half we build.

The schematic shows the layered kill chain — detect, track and identify, decide, defeat — and, underneath it, the platform that carries, powers and integrates the whole system. The detail panel draws the scope boundary: what is ours, and what is specialist or government-furnished.

Specifications

Reference system, sized to the site.

The parameters below describe a reference counter-drone system at the integration level. The sensor mix, the coverage, the defeat layer and the platform all follow from the threat, the force or site to be protected, and whether it must be mobile or fixed. Effector specifications are not given here.

Where a counter-drone system goes wrong

In the platform and the integration, as often as the sensors. A sensor suite with no silent-watch power can’t stay on watch; a badly integrated set of boxes from different makers fights itself; a platform that can’t be protected or moved is fixed where the last threat was; and a system with latency in the detect-to-decide chain sees the drone too late.

That is why the power, the pointing, the protection and the integration are engineered as carefully as the sensors are chosen — and why a prime integrator who owns the platform, not just a box-assembler, is what turns sub-systems into a system that actually holds a watch.

FAQ

Common questions.

Plain-language answers from the engineering team.

Q · 01 What is a counter-drone (C-UAS) system, and how does detect–decide–defeat work?

A counter-UAS (C-UAS, or anti-drone) system is a defensive system whose job is to protect a force, a base or a site from hostile drones and drone swarms, and it works as a layered chain of three steps. Detect: a suite of sensors — typically a radar (to see the drone at range), a radio-frequency scanner (to pick up its control and video links) and an electro-optical / infra-red camera (to see and confirm it visually) — work together, because a small, slow, low-flying drone is hard for any one sensor to catch reliably. Decide: command-and-control software fuses those sensors into one track, classifies the target as friend or foe, and presents the operator with the picture and the decision to engage or hold. Defeat: if the decision is to act, a defeat effector stops the drone — either a soft-kill (interfering with or taking over its links, non-destructive) or a hard-kill (physically stopping it). We describe defeat only at this category level. The important point for how we work is that all three layers have to be carried, powered and integrated on a platform that can go where the threat is — and that platform is what Neometrix builds.

Q · 02 What is the difference between soft-kill and hard-kill?

They are the two broad categories of drone defeat, and a good system usually offers a layered choice between them. Soft-kill is non-destructive: it works on the drone’s links — denying or taking over the radio-control and satellite-navigation signals it depends on — so the drone is forced down, sent home or made to hover, without anything being fired. It is favoured where the airspace is shared or debris must be avoided. Hard-kill physically stops the drone — by an interceptor or a net — and is used where a link-based method won’t work or the threat must be brought down certainly. Which layer is appropriate depends entirely on the threat and the rules of engagement for the site, and on this page we describe both only at the category level — we do not publish effector specifications, methods, frequencies or munitions. In every case the effector itself is a specialist or government-furnished sub-system that we integrate onto the platform, not a device we manufacture.

Q · 03 What does Neometrix actually build, and what is bought-in?

This is the most important thing to be clear about, because it defines what we are offering. Neometrix builds the platform and integrates the system. Specifically, ours is: the platform / carrier (a vehicle or trailer, a containerised shelter, or a static mast-base), the stabilised pointing pedestal that carries and aims the payload, the silent-watch power (APU, battery or fuel-cell hybrid) that keeps the system on watch, the ballistic and environmental protection of the platform, and the mechanical, electrical and data systems integration — plus installation and trials support — that turns a set of separate boxes into one working, fielded system. What is bought-in or government-furnished, and integrated by us rather than made by us, is the detection sensors (radar, RF, EO/IR), the defeat effectors, and the command-and-control software — these come from established specialist makers and defence laboratories. We are deliberately clear about this split: we are a prime-integration and platform partner, not a sensor or effector manufacturer, and the value we add is owning the platform and the integration rather than re-badging someone else’s box.

Q · 04 What platforms can it go on, and why is the platform the hard part?

It can go on a mobile platform (a wheeled or armoured vehicle, or a towed trailer), in a containerised shelter, or on a static mast-base at a fixed site — the choice follows the mission. The platform is harder than it looks for four reasons, all of which we engineer. Power: the sensors and effector must run continuously, often on a silent watch, which needs a real power solution, not just a socket — this is where our silent-watch APU and fuel-cell hybrid power come in. Pointing and stability: the sensors and effector must be carried on a stabilised mount that stays aligned on the move and in wind. Protection and environment: forward platforms need ballistic protection and must survive dust, cold, heat and altitude. Integration and latency: the boxes must be wired, cooled, timed and connected so the detect-to-decide-to-defeat chain runs fast enough to catch a fast, small target — a poorly integrated system is slow and fragile even with good sensors. A prime integrator who owns the platform, rather than a box-assembler, is what makes the difference between a demo and a system that holds a watch.

Q · 05 How is it powered?

By a silent-watch power system sized to keep the sensors, the C2 and the effector running for the required watch — and this is squarely our own engineering. A counter-drone system earns its keep by being on, continuously, often for long periods and often where a noisy, hot, fuel-hungry diesel generator is exactly what you do not want (a forward or covert site). So we power it the way we power our other forward-deployed systems: an auxiliary power unit, a battery bank, or a fuel-cell hybrid, managed so the platform can sit on a quiet, low-signature watch and still surge power to the sensors and effector when a threat appears. This is the same silent-watch power engineering as our fuel-cell hybrid power system, applied here to the C-UAS platform — and it is one of the clearest reasons the platform, not the sensor box, is where a lot of the real engineering lives.

Q · 06 What is the maturity — has Neometrix delivered these?

We are being deliberately straight about this. Neometrix offers the counter-drone platform and integration engineered-to-order, as a prime-integration and platform partner, and has engaged with this requirement at the prototype and costing stage — not as a vendor claiming a long line of fielded systems. No specific delivered system is claimed on this page. What we bring that is real and proven is the underlying engineering: mobile-platform integration, silent-watch and fuel-cell power, stabilised mounts and pointing, ballistic protection and heavy systems integration — all capabilities you can see in our other product lines. The sensors, the effector and the C2 software are specialist or government-furnished, and we integrate them. So the honest positioning is: we are the partner who can own the platform, the power and the integration of a counter-drone system and field it to order — and we would rather state that plainly than overclaim a system we have not delivered.
