VIDEO: Drone Dome Developed By Israelis To Protect Dubai From Air Strikes

By 03/16/2023 2:22 PMNo CommentsBy YidInfo Staff

The “DRONE DOME” will be installed and used in Dubai by Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. to defend the Gulf metropolis from attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles.

The company and the Dubai Police earlier agreed to supply the DRONE DOME C-UAS system, a commercial end-to-end system for securing airspace against hostile drones.

According to Rafael, one of the globe’s biggest concerns is the use of hostile drones in terrorism, criminal activity, and autonomous strikes. Drones operating close to airports jeopardize passengers’ lives and commercial planes.

By identifying unknown targets at a distance of 3.5 kilometers, creating alerts, and reacting in real-time with minimum collateral harm to the surrounding environment and maximum safety for friendly aircraft, DRONE DOME can effectively enforce UAV No-Fly zones.

Maj. Gen. Mohammed Nasser Al Razzoqi, chief of Dubai Police’s General Department of Operations, said, “In Dubai Police, we acknowledge the necessity of staying ahead of emerging threats and utilizing cutting-edge technologies to enhance the safety and security of our community.

“Our partnership with Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. is evidence of our dedication to resolving regional UAS issues and protecting priceless assets. He continued that we are working together to increase our security and safety capabilities by combining the power of various technologies and systems.

“We are proud to be standing alongside the Dubai Police and are committed to supporting the efforts to ensure that the regional threats and UAS challenges are met with the most cutting-edge solutions,” said Brig. Gen. (res.) Shachar Shohat, vice president of strategy and business development at RAFAEL.

This cooperation is a step toward improving defense capabilities and leveraging technologies that have protected various vital assets.
