Airport Counter-UAS Protection
Protect runways, approach corridors, and terminal perimeters from unauthorized drone incursions.
The Airport Drone Threat
Unauthorized unmanned aircraft near airports cause flight disruptions, endanger passengers, and create liability for airport authorities. Incidents worldwide have grounded flights and required costly security responses. Airports need layered detection that covers approach paths, cargo areas, and public lands adjacent to the airfield.
ICAO and national aviation regulators increasingly expect airports to assess low-altitude threats as part of their security programs. Aerosentry helps aviation security teams deploy authorized counter-UAS capabilities aligned with local civil aviation rules.
Industry Challenges
- Large perimeters with blind spots near terminals and cargo
- Coordination between airport ops, ATC, and law enforcement
- Minimizing false alarms from birds and ground traffic
- Integration with existing radar and video systems
Our Recommended Approach
Deploy fixed-site sensors along the airfield boundary with multi-sensor fusion to reduce false tracks. Use command software to share alerts with the SOC and designated response teams.
Supplement with mobile units for runway inspections and VIP movements.
Case Highlight
A major international airport in the Middle East deployed Aerosentry fixed-site detection along a 4 km perimeter, integrating with their VMS. Unauthorized drone alerts dropped 85% within six months through faster response coordination.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does airport C-UAS interfere with aviation radar?
Our systems are designed for low-altitude, short-range detection with frequency coordination documentation for your aviation authority.
Can we integrate with existing SOC?
Yes. Our software exposes standard APIs and supports common aviation security workflows.
What about mitigation?
Mitigation modules are available only where legally authorized. We help document compliance for your jurisdiction.
