BOREADES integrates data from multiple sensor technologies, including radar, radio-frequency and optronic systems, creating a unified operational picture. Through decision-support tools and automation, operators can rapidly assess threats and coordinate an effective response.
As drone threats become more sophisticated, organisations need more than standalone detection systems. Effective Counter-UAS operations depend on integrating sensors, understanding threats quickly and coordinating responses in real time.
BOREADES provides the command-and-control backbone that connects these capabilities, helping organisations move from detection to response through a single environment.
Effective Counter-UAS systems depend on sensors, effectors and command and control systems working together seamlessly. BOREADES acts as the integration backbone, bringing these sensors and effectors together into a cohesive counter-drone system, allowing operators to detect, categorise, identify, classify and neutralise hostile threats.
Built on an open and interoperable architecture, BOREADES has been integrated with more than 40 sensor types, including radar, RF, electro-optical and acoustic systems, as well as a wide range of soft and hard-kill effectors. This enables organisations to introduce new technologies and adapt to evolving threats without replacing existing infrastructure.
BOREADES has also been integrated into vehicle-based Counter-UAS platforms, supporting legacy turret and modern fire-control systems to deliver mobile force protection capabilities alongside fixed-site deployments.
Designed to operate as part of the wider air defence ecosystem, BOREADES supports recognised defence data standards, including SAPIENT. Tactical data links, including Link 16 and JREAP, allow BOREADES to share targeting data and connect to higher-level air defence systems, including NATO Integrated Air Defence environments.
Integrates with radar, RF, optronic and emerging sensor technologies through an open, modular architecture.
Fuses data from multiple sources to improve situational awareness and accelerate threat assessment.
Uses automation and decision-support tools to reduce operator workload and improve response times.
Available in fixed, mobile and deployable configurations to support defence, security and critical infrastructure environments.
Supports integration with wider command-and-control and air-defence systems, including SAPIENT, Link 16 and ASTERIX.
Developed since 2025, BOREADES has supported Counter-UAS operations across defence, security and critical infrastructure environments, including:
