Soft-kill countermeasures involve neutralizing UAVs without physical destruction, minimizing collateral damage and reducing escalation risks.

These methods utilize advanced technologies such as electronic warfare, jamming, spoofing, and directed energy weapons to disrupt drone operations and neutralize them effectively.

Detection and tracking of UAVs
🔸Effective detection and tracking are essential before implementing any countermeasures. Multiple technologies are employed to identify UAVs in real-time and assess their threat level.

Radar Systems:
🔸Specialized ground-based or airborne radars monitor the airspace and detect UAVs, even those with minimal radar signatures, in complex environments.
