Threats move faster than procurement.
Drone technology is evolving faster than the procurement cycles built to counter it. Operators in the field need systems flexible enough to keep pace with new threats, and simple enough that they do not add to the operator's load in the moment it matters most.
Lantern UAS builds those systems, and the intelligence and planning around them.
Most counter-drone spending goes on sensors and effectors. The hard part is often everything between them: knowing what normal looks like, deciding quickly who may act and how, and keeping a record that stands up afterwards. That is where we work.
The counter-drone decision chain:
- Detect: Radar, RF, EO/IR, acoustic; Remote ID and reports; Track and identify.
- Decide: Assess threat and intent; Check authority and rules; Rank options; a person approves.
- Respond: Notify and coordinate; Act within authority; Record and report.
AI advises and people approve every action. Every event is recorded and informs the next plan.
