Airport Drone Security
The presence of a drone within an airports airspace could lead to catastrophic events. Whether this be amateur drone pilots or targeted terrorist attacks, the threat a drone poses to any aircraft is extremely alarming.
Gatwick might have been the highest profile example of drones causing havoc to the aviation industry, but it is far from an isolated example.
Figures from the UK Airprox Board show it was just one of 290 drone-related incidents at UK airports and airfields between 2015 and 2018 – up from just 35 in the previous three-year period.
With the number of consumer and commercial drones being flown currently more than doubling every two years, the risk to the aviation industry is increasing rapidly. Our airport drone security can help suppress any drone related threats.

Airport Anti-Drone Systems
In response to the Gatwick incident, the UK government introduced a raft of new measures, including a ban on all drones within 1km of protected airport boundaries and a requirement for all drone owners to register their vehicles.
But at the same time, authorities recognise the need for tougher defence measures, including the use of mitigation technology to physically prevent unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) intruding into restricted airspace.
Some of the regulations need to catch up with the realities of stopping drones causing more disruption at our airports. But the technology is ready.
Detectors capable of obtaining GPS coordinates of selected drones, pilots and flightpaths
Over 5km drone detection range subject to environment
Detects RF, Wi-Fi and FPV drones
Detectors capable of intercepting FPV video footage from selected FPV drones
Covert drone mitigation effective against all major types of UAV
360 degree drone detection with automatic alerting via SMS or email

Airport Drone Detection
A.I.M supplies out-of-the-box drone detection solutions guaranteed to pick up on any unauthorised UAVs straying into restricted airspace. The DS-8 drone detection systems use multiple sensors to scan for different drone control signals, making them effective in identifying selected major UAV types.
Early warning
Each DS-8 unit has a scanning range of over 5km* in all directions, allowing for wide-area monitoring and early identification of any potential threats. Real-time alerts via email or SMS make sure security personnel can respond in plenty of time. If drones use GPS for navigation, the DS-8 can also track the flight path on selected drones to assist with further action.

As important as drone detection is, airports need to be able to physically stop drones in order to fully secure their airspace. A.I.M’s drone mitigation solutions disrupt the drones operation by either forcing them to land or making them return to their home location.
Speak to one of our experts about your defence options to find the best way to protect your airspace from unwanted UAV’s.
