Israeli Firm Develops Drone Jamming Technology

(JNS) Yaakov Lappin - In Germany, Holland and the UK, drones are delivering smuggled goods like drugs, weapons and cell phones to prison inmates, said Ido Bar Oz, chief marking officer of the MCTECH RF Technologies Israeli anti-drone company. MCTECH specializes in radio frequency (RF) jammers. Its MC-HORIZON D360 jams a variety of drones and quadcopters to protect facilities and audiences at high-risk events. In 2019, during 21 musical performances in Italy attended by millions of spectators, the company neutralized 16 drones. "We created a roadblock around the protected area against drones. Once our systems detect them, it uses their same frequencies...to jam them." "Our military systems can identify over 200 targets simultaneously and classify 200 different types of drones."
