“The (SAIC) system included… EnforceAir… for radio-frequency detection. EnforceAir…”demonstrated impressive effectors”…EnforceAir was able to “force-land” specific drones.”
The Joint Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems office issued a short list of recommended options...based on demonstrations... at the Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona.... In the JCO demonstration, SAIC’s system used the EnforceAir system from D-Fend Solutions to force-land specific drones.
The airspace above and adjacent to airports has become vulnerable and increasingly punctured by unmanned aircraft systems that endanger aircraft and passengers. However, a new, proven and highly promising C-UAS technology category, cyber-takeover, involves taking control over the rogue drone without interfering with other drones and communication signals.
Following two football game drone incidents, DroneLife contacted D-Fend Solutions to discuss counter-drone protection of stadiums for sporting events, and the clear advantages of next generation RF cyber takeover C-UAS for this sector use case.

Yuval Statman, D-Fend Solutions Pre-Sales Engineer, International
Yuval joined D-Fend more than a year ago. He works with existing and prospective customers and partners, introducing EnforceAir and demonstrating its features and capabilities. Before joining D-Fend, Yuval was a tour guide, and Covid-19 led him to a major turn in his career. However, traveling is still a big part of his job.
“I love traveling around the world to introduce our system to many different people. When I carry out the EnforceAir demonstration, it’s like a show of magic power, and I always love watching the reaction of C-UAS professionals.”
Yuval works with the company’s pre-sales team, sharing his experiences, testing the system, and learning from each other!
