The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) announces on its website that during a ceremony in Enköping (central Sweden), they handed over a number of portable anti-drone systems to the Swedish Armed Forces (Försvarsmakten). These systems are designed to be carried on a soldier's combat gear, providing the capability to detect and disrupt drones without affecting the primary mission.

The FMV, together with the Swedish Armed Forces' Command and Control Regiment in Enköping, has conducted trials and tests with various anti-drone systems over several years. The results have been divided into three categories: portable, stationary, and heavy. Portable systems are carried by the soldier on their combat vest, backpack, or in their hands. Stationary systems are set up in the terrain and can be moved daily. Heavy systems are intended to remain for extended periods at locations such as an airbase, and these heavy systems are usually connected to some form of command support system.

– In this round, the portable systems with associated equipment were handed over. Once all three systems have been delivered, the armed forces will have the capability to combat drones across all levels of conflict, terrain types, and weather conditions. The technological development in this area is rapid, which means the systems must be continuously developed. The chosen system solutions have this capability, says Per Andersson, project manager for anti-drone systems at FMV, on the agency's website.
