DroneShield Introduces Hand-Held Counter-Drone Device

DroneGun Mk III Is Designed For Single Hand Operation

The latest drone countermeasure device developed by DroneShield is a "compact, lightweight drone countermeasure designed for one hand operation," according to the company.

The DroneGun Mk III is intended to provide a safe countermeasure against a wide range of drone models. It allows for a controlled management of drone payload such as explosives, with no damage to common drones models or surrounding environment due to the drones generally responding via a vertical controlled landing on the spot, or returning back to the starting point (assisting to track the operator), with an immediate cease of video back to the drone pilot.

RF disruption activation will also interfere with any live video streaming (FPV) back to the remote controller halting the collection of video footage and intelligence by the drone operator.

The device weighs 4.3 pounds and a range of about 1,640 feet, according to the company. As an option, the device can be configured to disrupt GNSS capability.

DroneShield cautions that DroneGun MkIII has not been authorized as required by the United States Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”). This device is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, in the United States, other than to the United States government, its agencies, and its properly delegated representatives, until such authorization is obtained.
