Heimdal

C-UAS · DIRECTED ENERGYLaser counter-drone turret

A laser turret that shoots hostile drones out of the sky. Emplaced as a fixed installation or mounted on a vehicle roof, where it holds a protective envelope over the vehicle while it is moving.

COVERAGE

Interceptors run out. Jammers stop working the moment the threat stops listening. HEIMDAL defeats a drone optically — it tracks the target, holds the beam on it, and brings it down. There is no round to expend and no round to resupply: as long as the turret has power, it has a magazine. Bolted to a roof rack, it keeps that protection over a vehicle on the move.

Design intent
0101 / 03

A magazine you cannot shoot dry

Every engagement costs electricity and nothing else. There is no interceptor inventory to forecast, transport, store or run out of halfway through a defence.

0202 / 03

It protects a moving vehicle

Mounted on the roof, the turret stays stabilised and keeps its envelope over the vehicle while it drives. Protection travels with the convoy instead of waiting at the destination.

0303 / 03

Nothing comes back down

A laser leaves no fragmentation pattern and no spent interceptor falling into whatever is underneath the engagement. That matters when the airspace you are defending sits over people.
