CapTech Daily: The Future of Drone Swarming for Philippine Defense Drone swarming is revolutionizing modern warfare, offering unprecedented advantages through large fleets of autonomous drones that work in perfect coordination. This breakthrough technology enables militaries to execute complex operations—ranging from reconnaissance and electronic warfare to precision strikes—while minimizing risks to human lives and enhancing battlefield effectiveness. For the Philippine Air Force, adopting drone swarm capabilities presents a strategic opportunity to bolster our air and maritime domain awareness. It could be a game-changer in safeguarding critical infrastructures and addressing emerging threats, particularly in contested areas like the West Philippine Sea. By integrating AI-powered drone swarms with our existing intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems, we can ensure the Philippines maintains a technological edge in defense readiness. The future of defense lies in innovation, and drone swarming is poised to become a key pillar of that future for the Philippines. #CapTechDailyPH #PhilDefenseTech #FutureOfWarfare #PHTechEdge #StratTechPH #PHDefenseReadiness #PHMilitaryInnovation #WestPhilippineSea #InnovationInDefense

Keeping proactive in Electronic Warfare. The boundary between security and vulnerability is growing increasingly narrow as the sky fills with a rising number of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and drones. These UASs are evolving to become smaller, more discreet, and highly advanced technologically.

Recent reports of mysterious drone sightings near military installations in New Jersey have reignited attention on what authorities the Federal government has to counter unmanned aircraft systems (#CUAS). In 2018, Congress granted #DHS and #DOJ the power to use advanced detection technologies to identify, track, and mitigate drones. That authority is set to expire December 20th. In addition to the New Jersey concerns, agencies like #TSA and #SecretService have long been tracking increased drone activity near airports and in their protective missions. Several actions need to be taken. 1. #Congress needs to pass the Counter-UAS Authority Security, Safety, and Reauthorization Act of 2024, which would extend existing DHS and DOJ authorities through 2028. 2. Federal agencies need to do a better job communicating/coordinating with State/Local governments on what they are seeing and how to respond to CUAS scenarios. 3. The Federal government should strengthen partnerships with private industry on advanced research & development to counter UAS technology that threatens public safety or #homelandsecurity.

What is a Drone Wall? Implications for c-UAS The initiative by six NATO countries to establish a "drone wall" along their borders marks a significant step in enhancing border security using advanced counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (c-UAS) technologies. This defensive measure aims to protect against potential threats from unauthorized drones, which could be used for espionage, smuggling, or other hostile activities. Key Components of the Drone Wall: 1. Integrated Detection Systems: The drone wall will utilize a combination of radar, RF detection, and optical sensors to create a comprehensive detection grid. These systems will be able to identify and track unauthorized drones in real-time. This integration is crucial for creating a layered defense system that can detect drones at various altitudes and distances, ensuring no gaps in coverage. 2. Active Defense Measures: The system will incorporate electronic warfare techniques such as jamming and spoofing to disrupt drone operations. Additionally, kinetic solutions like interceptors and net-based systems will be employed to physically neutralize drones that pose a threat. These measures ensure a multi-faceted approach to countering drone threats, providing both passive and active defenses. Broader Applications of the Drone Wall Technologies: While the primary focus of the drone wall is military defense, the technologies developed can have significant broader applications: 1. Critical Infrastructure Protection: The same c-UAS technologies can be deployed to protect critical infrastructure such as power plants, airports, and government buildings from potential drone threats. Ensuring the security of these vital facilities is crucial for national security. 2. Public Safety- Large public events, such as sports games or political rallies, can benefit from the deployment of c-UAS technologies to safeguard attendees from potential drone-related incidents. This enhances the safety and security of public gatherings. 3. Commercial Use: Industries such as logistics and agriculture can adopt these technologies to manage and mitigate risks associated with unauthorized drone activity, protecting assets and improving operational safety. The collaboration among NATO countries, including Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, Finland, and Norway, exemplifies a coordinated approach to modern defense challenges. By pooling resources and expertise, these nations aim to create a robust defense against the evolving threat posed by unmanned aerial systems.
