IAF now wants to get 10 contra-drone systems

New Delhi: The IAF now wants to obtain 10 unmanned aircraft systems (wild) after the first drone terror attack in the country at the Jammu Air Force station on June 27.
The day after the Jammu attack, the operational gap open in handling commercially available small drones that are cheated with explosives, the IAF issued RFI (request information) to find responses from Indian companies for a counter-drone system called the wild.
The existing IAF air defense system, with a sophisticated radar and missilelysystem, directed at foiling air intrusion by unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) larger, airplanes, and helicopters, as reported by TOI.
“The wild is intended to detect, track, identify, point, and neutralize hostile UAS.
Energy weapons directed by lasers (laser-dews) are basically needed as an option of murder,” Rfi said.
With the election of formal and the procurement process to start in the third quarter of this year, Indian vendors must determine the delivery schedule.
IAF is interested in starting delivery as soon as possible after the contract is inked and completed in one year.
The vendors must also determine whether the save is designed, developed and produced in India or will be produced under the transfer of technology from foreign companies.
The broadcast must provide a “multi-sensor, multi-kill solution” to enforce a no-fly zone that is effective for micro and mini drones while creating “minimal guarantee damage” in the surrounding environment.
The sensor must have a phased active array radar with a coverage of 360 degrees and a range of 5 km, RF sensor (radio frequency), electro-optical system and infrared.
The “Soft Kill” option must have a global navigation Jamming Satellite (GNSS) system to interfere or cheat GPS, Glonass, Beidou and Galileo used by drones.
“Hard kill”, in turn, will go through Laser-Dews.
“All ten CUE is needed in cellular configurations installed in traditional vehicles with cross-country capabilities and powered by the original electrical power supply system,” RFI said.
Air Head Marshal RKS Bhadauria has last week says IAF does have a large number of “soft kill” to disrupt the command and small drone control links and “hard” counter-drone systems but they have not been deployed at the Jammu Air Station because they do not have “important assets” Like combat jets.
The IAF works closely with the Drdo on its anti-drone system, which has directed energy weapons such as a laser and will soon finish their trial.
“This is a new type of threat.
Many projects have been carried out and some systems have been translated,” he said.
Drdo has developed two anti-drone dew systems, with 10 kilowatt lasers to involve air targets with a range of 2 km and compact.
Tripod-mounted one with 2-kilowatt laser for a range of 1 km.
But they have not been produced in large quantities, as previously reported by TOI.
