Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems
The threat is airborne.
The answer is unseen.
Velatus builds layered counter-UAS defense — passive and active countermeasures that detect, track, identify, and defeat hostile unmanned systems before they reach the people they target.
Request a BriefingThe Threat Environment
Small drones changed the battlefield. Defenses haven't caught up.
Inexpensive unmanned aircraft now deliver surveillance, electronic attack, and lethal payloads at a fraction of the cost of the systems they threaten. From fixed installations to dismounted soldiers, every echelon is exposed — and traditional air defense was never designed for targets this small, this cheap, or this numerous.
Capabilities
Three lines of effort. One protective envelope.
Passive Countermeasures
Persistent RF and multi-sensor detection, signature management, and concealment — awareness without emission, protection without escalation.
Explore → 02 / ACTIVEActive Countermeasures
Scalable defeat options — from non-kinetic disruption to directed interception — matched to threat, environment, and rules of engagement.
Explore → 03 / SOLDIERSoldier Protection
Wearable warning and countermeasure systems that extend the protective envelope to the individual — where seconds decide outcomes.

Detect. Track. Identify. Defeat.
No single sensor or effector stops the modern UAS threat. Velatus integrates the kill chain into one layered architecture, so each ring of the defense buys time, information, and options for the next.
Our ApproachBuilt for
Program offices, primes, and operational units that need counter-UAS capability fielded — not promised.
Designed by
Engineers and operators with backgrounds across air defense, electronic warfare, and dismounted operations.
Integrated with
Open architectures and existing command-and-control — augmenting the systems you already field.
Disciplined by
Operational security. We publish what helps our customers evaluate us, and nothing that helps the threat.
