BOREADES: The integrated Counter-UAS capability 

Detect early, decide smart, respond fast.

How BOREADES works

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. 

Moving beyond detection

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. 

Why BOREADES?

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.
