Product overview

The SAT Low Altitude Air Defense System, LADS Mammoth, provides modular counter-drone protection for airports, power facilities and military installations. It combines a security radar, a long-distance EO camera and an 8-band radio jammer, with a radio detector available as an option. Designed for more than 5km security coverage, the system supports manual-intervention and unattended operation. Multiple devices can be networked together, and an optional high-performance module provides tighter and larger security coverage. The modular system supports maintenance and upgrades.

Radar target data passes automatically to the control system, which sends the intruder location to the EO camera and radio jammer. EO identification triggers an alert and visual tracking. Optional radio detection monitors remote-control, image-transmission and Wi-Fi signals. Upon UAV discovery, the jammer automatically interferes with image-transmission, control and GPS signals to expel the aircraft from the security area or force it to land. The camera equipment includes laser illumination and thermal imaging. System protection includes IP66, lightning protection, surge protection and voltage transient protection.
