On 28-29 January, the kick-off meeting for the Europen Defence Fund’s European Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (E-CUAS) project, led by Leonardo, took place in Rome, Italy.
The #ECUAS project aims to design and develop fully functional counter-drone (#CUAS) prototypes, validating them in air defence scenarios relevant to the participating armed forces. These systems will integrate various sensors, such as radar, optical, acoustic, radio frequency, Command and Control (C2) and various effectors to detect, identify, track, support engagement and decision-making, and neutralize small drone threats (Class 1 UAS, up to 150 kg).
Among the attendees of the meeting were representatives of the ECUAS Consortium, comprising 25 companies from 13 EU countries (Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Lithuania, Estonia, Sweden, Norway, and Greece). Also present were the Project Officer from the European Commission - DEFIS, the Project Manager from the Italian Ministry of Defence (Ministero della Difesa) - Secretariat of Defence - IV Department, who coordinates the community of European Ministries of Defence (MoDs) sponsoring and co-funding the project, as well as representatives from the participating MoDs.
