Modular Kinetic Counter-UAV & Autonomous SHORAD Systems

Mission

Autonomy
for
tactical air defense

Cost Efficiency

Every aerial threat must be neutralized with a cost-efficient solution.

Each interception costs ~$10. Each drone is designed for 15+ engagements per lifetime. Defense that every unit can afford to deploy at scale.

Modularity

Small SHORAD must be modular and scalable.

One weapon system, 9+ compatible platforms, three munition variants. No proprietary airframe required. Mount on what's already in service - scale to every squad, every checkpoint, every corridor.

Autonomy

The operator must not be the bottleneck.

Attack cycles measured in seconds leave no room for human latency. AI that detects, tracks, and engages autonomously removes the reaction-time ceiling entirely - turning every interceptor into a self-directed defensive asset.

Traditional air defense systems are:

Too expensive per target

Ineffective at very low altitudes

Not scalable to company or battalion level

“A new generation of affordable, autonomous short-range air defense is required.”

VARTA interceptor platform

Ready-to-Deploy

Interceptor Platforms

Complete interceptor systems - 10" to 15" airframes with up to 30 km mission range and 4-barrel configurations. Fly out of the box. Two platform variants covering close-range defense to extended-range operations.

  • -Sich 10" - compact, analog, 20+ km range
  • -Bulava 15" - extended range, digital HD, 30 km
  • -Kinetic munitions + SYLA fire control included
DOZOR AI module

Autonomous Detection & Engagement System

DOZOR AI Module

Hardware + software module that transforms any interceptor into an autonomous defensive unit. Optical and thermal camera fusion with inertial navigation. Platform-agnostic. mounts on any FPV, copter, MAVLink integration with ArduPilot/BetaFlight.

  • -AI target detection, classification & designation
  • -Autonomous tracking & engagement
  • -Sensor stack: optical + thermal camera, inertial navigation

Kill Chain

01

Detect & Classify

Detect & Classify

Dual-sensor scan - optical + thermal cameras identify and classify aerial threats. AI confirms target type before engagement.

02

Intercept & Hit

Intercept & Hit

Interceptor navigates to optimal engagement vector. SYLA fire control triggers kinetic munition with immediate confirmation.

03

Return

Return

Interceptor resets. Multiple engagements per sortie. No return to base required between kills.
