Gama Aviation and Department 13 partner to mitigate drone threats to UK critical infrastructure

Gama Aviation’s Special Mission business unit and Department 13 have formed a partnership that will work to mitigate drone threats for the UK’s Air Ambulance, national security, policing and other critical national infrastructure interests.

Department 13’s SCOUT, ATLAS, and DART systems provide non-jamming and non-kinetic uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) detection and counter-UAS effects to defence and commercial sectors. The company’s technology allows for the creation of fixed or mobile secure perimeters, enabling operators to take control of a target drone or its controller.

Gama Aviation identified Department 13 as a partner following a strategic review of the UAS market.
