  • The British Army has conducted "successful" trials of a radio frequency-directed energy weapon (RFDEW), which can neutralise drone swarms using radio waves. The system is designed to detect, track, and engage various threats on land,

The British Army has successfully tested a new drone defense system named Titan, developed by the defense technology company QinetiQ. This system utilizes radio waves to detect, track, and neutralize drones, offering a non-kinetic solution to counter unmanned aerial threats. The technology was demonstrated at the Army Warfighting Experiment (AWE) 23, where it showcased its ability to identify and mitigate drone activities effectively. Titan integrates with existing military command and control systems, enhancing the UK's defense capabilities against the growing threat of drones in modern warfare. The system's success in these trials marks a significant advancement in electronic warfare, providing a scalable and adaptable solution to protect military and civilian assets from aerial intrusions.
