AirMatrix and Robin Radar Systems Unveil Unified CUAS Stack, Turning Raw Detection into Rapid Defense
Article content TORONTO — AirMatrix has joined forces with Netherlands-based Robin Radar Systems to launch an integrated counter-UAS solution that takes operators from initial drone detection to effective counter-measures in a single, intelligent workflow. Article content Article content Robin Radar's IRIS sensor delivers long-range, 3-D drone tracking via micro-Doppler and deep-learning algorithms. Libra (AirMatrix's AI command layer) ingests that radar feed alongside RF, Visual EO/IR, Acoustic, and Remote ID data, automatically classifying objects, predicting flight paths, and triggering tailored responses within seconds. Article content The result: Article content a self-prioritizing alert stream that slashes false positives, trims decision loops, and lets a two-person security team manage the airspace of a major facility without information overload. Article content 'Very few ecosystems let operators act on those detections in real time. By pairing IRIS's precision with Libra's autonomous decision engine, we're giving security teams clarity, speed, and confidence straight out of the box,' said Ayaan Haider, Co-Founder & CTO, AirMatrix. Key Advantages Intelligent sensor fusion – AI validation reduces noise and elevates genuine threats. Seconds-to-action UI – Track, verify, and deploy countermeasures from one screen. Scalable by design – Modular APIs plug into existing VMS, PSIM, or defense networks. Future-proof performance – Handles nano-drones today, swarms tomorrow. 'IRIS already leads the market in detection accuracy for small, fast, low-RCS drones,' said Marcel Verdonk, Chief Commercial Officer at Robin Radar Systems. 'Linking that precise radar feed to Libra's common operating picture gives security teams instant, actionable awareness.' Article content Securing Skies at the Speed of Autonomy Article content This collaboration underscores a shared mission: move counter-UAS operations from manual interpretation to automated dominance. By merging best-in-class detection with sovereign AI command, AirMatrix and Robin Radar are setting a new benchmark for resilient, rapidly deployable airspace defense.

Netherlands to send 175 mln euros of military aid to Ukraine
The Netherlands will provide Ukraine with 100 drone-detection radars and 20 medical evacuation vehicles as part of a new 175 million euro ($202 million) aid package, Dutch Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans said on Tuesday. Delivery of the radars, which will help identify incoming drones and relay data to air defense systems, is expected to be completed by year-end. In a statement on Friday, the Dutch Defense Ministry specified that 80 million euros of the package will go towards drone support through the international drone coalition. The move on Tuesday follows a 500 million euro deal to produce 600,000 drones with the Ukrainian defense industry, Brekelmans said ahead of a NATO Summit in The Hague. The Netherlands has pledged about 10 billion euros in military support for Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion in early 2022. ($1 = 0.8629 euros)

FAA Issues Warning With 'Clear Message' Before Drone Test
On Friday, June 13, the Federal Aviation Administration revealed it will conduct drone-detection testing near Santa Teresa, NM from June 16-27. According to a statement from the FAA, the administration's Center of Excellence for UAS Research, in coordination with U.S. Customs and Border Protection will conduct the testing at Doña Ana County International Jetport. State a local first responders will be on hand for the tests. This will be the third major drone-detection test planned by the FAA following the first two tests in Alaska and Cape May, NJ. The FAA selected the New Mexico location for its hot and arid climate, which the administration revealed supports its testing objectives. "The FAA will operate several large drones and about 100 commercial off-the-shelf drones during the two-week period. Testing will take place over the desert and near the old Rio Grande Speedway during the daytime on weekdays only," the FAA announced. Additional tests are scheduled in Mississippi and North Dakota later this year. The tests are run to help determine the effectiveness of the FAA's technologies and whether they might interfere with administration or aircraft navigation systems. Before the test runs in New Mexico later this month, the FAA issued a stern message to the public. "The public should not fly recreational drones near this area during the testing period," the administration said before offering a "clear message." "The FAA receives more than 100 drone-sighting reports near airports each month, and we want to send a clear message that operating drones around airplanes, helicopters, and airports is dangerous and illegal," it said. The FAA initially chartered the UAS Detection and Mitigation Systems Aviation Rulemaking Committee on March 16, 2023, to advise the agency on safely integrating drone detection and mitigation systems. After the ARC made 46 recommendations on ensuring systems do not interfere with the safe and efficient operation of the National Airspace System the FAA announced it incorporated many of the recommendations into the administrations work to ensure Issues Warning With 'Clear Message' Before Drone Test first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 14, 2025
