Ukrainian and Israeli forces are deploying wearable counter-drone technology from Autonomous Guard, which is also being tested by the US Army. This technology includes RF detection and jamming capabilities, allowing soldiers to detect hostile drones up to two kilometers away and jam them from three kilometers. The system provides directional alerts, enabling troops to take cover or reposition. The US Army has trialed this equipment during exercises in Europe, reflecting the growing need for individual soldier protection against drone threats. The technology has been supplied to various military units, including those under US European Command and Ukraine's Armed Forces. The increasing use of drones in warfare has prompted militaries to seek portable counter-drone solutions, with the US military emphasizing the need to adapt to these evolving threats. Additionally, MyDefence has introduced a new drone detection system called Wingman Edge, which utilizes AI for real-time analysis of the electromagnetic spectrum.
