Pentagon to field low-collateral, counter-drone interceptors in FY22 February 2 The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment and the Threat Systems Management Office push a swarm of 40 drones through a town during the battle of Razish at the National Training Center on May 8, 2019. (Pvt. 2nd Class James Newsome/U.S. Army) WASHINGTON The Pentagon aims to field a low-collateral effects interceptor part of its evolving and enduring solution to countering small drones by fiscal 2022, according to the joint office in charge of the effort. The Defense Department established the Army-led Joint Counter-Small Unmanned Aircraft Office, or JCO, a little more than a year ago. The office laid out a path for how it will develop a system to counter small unmanned aerial systems, releasing a strategy earlier this month and approving a set of requirements last fall that guides industry to develop technology to plug into a single command-and-control system. ....
2021 Is the Year the Small Drone Arms Race Heats Up The cat-and-mouse of drone defense and offense is entering a new phase. As drones become smarter, cheaper, more nimble, easier for rogue adversaries to acquire and more advanced adversaries to evolve, they pose a unique threat for the U.S. military that grows in importance as the objects themselves diminish in size. This year, trends in autonomy will reshape drone capabilities and concepts, making them more offensively useful and even harder to defend against. “Drones and most likely drone swarms are something you’re going to see on a future battlefield.I think we’re already seeing some of it,” said Army Gen. John Murray, who leads Army Futures Command. “Counter drone, we’re working the same path everybody else is working in terms of soft skills and hard kills via a variety of different weapons systems. It just becomes very hard when you start talking about swarms of small drones. Not impossible bu ....
WASHINGTON — In the future, drones could threaten U.S. defense systems with a swarming capability that uses artificial intelligence while leveraging 5G connectivity, the director of an Army-led joint office ....
By Sydney J. Freedberg Jr. on January 11, 2021 at 5:07 PM A swarm of 40 small drones fills the sky over the National Training Center during a 2019 exercise. WASHINGTON: Got lasers? Jammers? Wireless hacking tools? Then check out the competition the Pentagon will formally kick off Friday, with an open invitation to industry to bring their “low collateral damage effectors” to Yuma Proving Ground this April. The objective: pick the best system or systems for all the armed services to buy to defeat small drones when physically shooting them out of the sky is too dangerous to civilians or friendly troops. “Bring all your low-collateral effectors to the range first week of April, and we’ll select the best ones and move forward with that as the joint solution,” Maj. Gen. Sean Gainey said in a CSIS webcast Friday. ....

Sirrina Martinez/U.S. Army) WASHINGTON The first opportunity for industry to demonstrate technology for the Pentagon’s enduring counter-drone capability will take place in April, according to the two-star general in charge of the joint effort. The Defense Department is developing a counter-small unmanned aircraft system capability for use domestically, in host nations and in conflict. The Pentagon established the Army-led Joint Counter-Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office, or JCO, and approved a set of requirements to help counter small drones in September 2020, which laid a path for how industry can develop technology to plug into a single command-and-control system. ....
