Identify Friend or Foe module for drones at NATO standards

FLYING OBJECTS TECHNOLOGIES

Hall 5b - D151
France
It is essential in the modern battlefield to recognize whether an incoming UAV is a friend or foe.The Uavionix IFF system is the first NATO-compliant, combat-proven technology for the Identification of Friend or Foe for all types of drones in an ultra-lightweight package.. We propose the smallest and lightest transponders (70 grams) on the market. This is a game-changer in the modern battlefield with crowded airspace and multiple UAV systems, and the need for interoperability.

Innovation character

The innovation resides in delivering a full NATO standard Mode 5 with the necessary encryption compliance with such a small form factor of 70 grams, versus heavier traditional systems.This revolutionise the interoperability and safety in a conflicted airspace by granting UAV systems operators and ground troops the capability to recognise other platforms as friends or foe.

Potential for evolution

Extended range in the future potentially.
