SAIC has over a decade of experience in providing proven CUAS solutions to civilian, federal and defense customers. Our CUAS technology integration keeps military bases, airports, flights and our borders safe with drone detection, identification and mitigation methods. SAIC's integrated suite of CUAS solutions can be configured for fixed-site defense or supporting maneuver units and tactical operations.
We understand the unique needs of our customers and developed CUAS architectures that meet their specific requirements. These architectures consist of state-of-the-art sensors and effectors, combined with vendor-agnostic command-and-control capabilities. We work with partners to integrate cutting-edge CUAS technologies and deliver robust deterrence systems that ensure the well-being of our nation and allies.

COUNTER UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS
The security environment is changing due to the diffusion and ease of access to drone technology and unmanned aerial systems (UAS). SAIC’s integrated CUAS solutions manage, protect and secure your base against any outside threat.
Air Base Air Defense
With an increase in the commercial use of UAS, there is a dramatic proliferation of highly capable drones occupying U.S. airspace. Our UAS detection and mitigation solutions at airports ensure the safety of aircraft and travelers.
Airport Security
Smugglers use UAS to illegally traffic items and elude border security and immigration controls. Our CUAS solutions detect and intercept hostile drones and UAS at safe
stand-off distances.
Border Security
SAIC has developed and sustained theater-integrated CUAS capabilities for multi-domain and CJADC2 operations. Defending against group 1-3 threats, swarm attacks and stressing raids, our integrated solutions do not require air defense specialists to operate.
