Teledyne FLIR Defense introduced its Cerberus XL C-UAS air domain monitoring and counter-drone platform at this week’s
Cerberus® XL C-UAS is a rugged, state-of-the-art integrated system equipped with high performance long-range sensors and Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) technology. The platform combines advanced thermal/visual imaging systems with highly sensitive, long-range 3D radars and RF detection to quickly locate and track drone targets, plus third-party non-kinetic effectors that can defeat threats out to three kilometers.
The mobile trailer-based system can deploy rapidly in the most challenging environments. Cerberus XL C-UAS is modular and can be configured for air, ground, and maritime threats. It offers users a multi-domain situational awareness solution for the toughest air security challenges, such as military force protection, flight lines, airports, seaports, borders, and critical infrastructure.
Cerberus XL C-UAS addresses the entire counter-drone kill chain, including detect, track, identify and defeat. The platform is designed to easily integrate with kinetic defeat solutions and features sensors with advanced AI to boost target identification accuracy.
