Rogue drones entering European airspace were never isolated incidents.
Russia conducted a coordinated drone campaign across Europe – as a recent IISS report concludes.
These findings reinforce what many in the defence community have recognised for some time: Europe needs a faster, more agile approach to counter-drone capability.
That is why Rasmussen Global launched Dronetex.
Dronetex brings together leading European and Ukrainian defence technology companies to accelerate the deployment of combat-proven, scalable counter-drone capabilities that complement national, EU and NATO efforts. The initiative rests on a simple premise: a credible, good-enough system deployed today is better than an exquisite solution delivered too late.
Ukraine’s operational experience has transformed the understanding of drone warfare. Europe now has an opportunity to translate those lessons into capabilities that better protect its critical infrastructure and airspace.
We are keen to hear from companies, experts and practitioners, particularly those connected to Ukraine’s defence innovation ecosystem, as we continue to strengthen Dronetex’s sensors, effectors and overall system architecture to meet the full spectrum of evolving drone threats.
