Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS)

When it comes to countering unmanned aerial system (UAS) threats that are proliferating across the modern battlefield, there is no 'silver bullet' solution.

Northrop Grumman believes that a strong defense against Unmanned Aerial System Threats requires a comprehensive, end-to-end approach. We are uniquely capable of providing an integrated, layered solution across the kill chain. Our C-UAS architecture and system of systems approach starts with sensing and tracking. It delivers a layered defense that includes a full complement of kinetic and non-kinetic effects, aerial and ground sensors and the battle-hardened, proven and deployed Forward Area Air Defense (FAAD) system. FAAD was recently selected by the Department of Defense (DoD) as the system of choice for Counter-small UAS. Ultimately, our approach creates a fully networked battlespace that connects, integrates and optimizes every-sensor/best-effector operations.
