Fort Walton Beach, FLA.-US Northern Commuran cooperated with dozens of companies to test various counter-drone systems to protect certain national security areas from drone attacks.
Usnorthcom showed the non-small air system (C-SUAS) platform during the ‘Falcon Peak 25.2’ event in the Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. For the demonstration, the crew launched a “hostile” drone from Santa Rosa Island because he caught a clearly fired net from a preventive drone.
The twenty anti-immediately system system was tested in the days going to the event. Falcon Peak gives companies the opportunity to test their anti-immediately system systems in a realistic environment.
Squhead Technology has developed an acoustic SYTEM that identified drones with their voices and determines their position.

“You see many drones flying in the ground, close to the ground, making it difficult for the radars to buy them.” He said.
When the acoustic system detects the location of a drone, the troops can hit it or use Fortem Technologies’s low collateral effect intermediate internal drone.
“[The drone] He goes out and holds it with a net and puts it safely and puts it everywhere you need, Fotem Fotem Technologies CEO Jon Gruen.
However, Gruen’s C-SUAS platform can detect, monitor and mitigate drones on their own. In some cases, Fortem Technologies’s preventive drones use explosives to eliminate enemy drones.

Mayes said drones can be easily replaced with surveillance or smuggling tools. Some countries have used drones as guided explosive devices in war.
US Air Force Gen. Gregory Guillot is the commander of USNORHCOM. He said he was sure that the army could stop a surprise drone attack. However, in the event of a continuous attack, he hopes that more anti-immediately technology can protect military fields.
