The threat from unmanned aerial vehicles is rapidly growing. Drones are increasingly encountered in sensitive environments today, which heightens the need for advanced systems to locate and manage airborne threats.

Swedish company ArmaTech offers a mobile and modern capability to detect drones through the Wolfpack system from MyDefence. It is a compact, passive RF sensor that can locate drones in 360 degrees, identify their type and model, and alert the user in real-time.

The system typically consists of three sensors that triangulate the drone's position and can be placed up to 3000 meters apart to cover a large area. To reduce the risk of detection, the system's units communicate via fiber optic cables instead of radio signals. This makes Wolfpack harder to detect and significantly less vulnerable to interference.

– Micropol's connectors and cables give our system the capacity to deliver critical sensor data over long distances in all types of environments. Their reliability, durability, and user-friendliness make them an important and integrated part of our solution, says Anders Rudén, Deputy CEO at ArmaTech.

The fiber optic cables are equipped with Micropol's FALCON expanded beam connectors, which enable high speed and low signal loss even over long distances. The robust HD cables are designed to withstand heavy stress and can even be driven over by vehicles without losing functionality.

For quick and secure field deployment, a tactical backpack from Micropol is used, equipped with a crank function that facilitates cable management during movements in demanding environments.

Wolfpack combines modern RF technology with tactical endurance and helps enhance users' situational awareness at a time when airborne threats are becoming more common. MyDefence and ArmaTech have previously delivered among other things, portable anti-drone systems to FMV.
