The Skywall Auto Automatic Net Capture System
SkyWall Auto is an autonomous system that is remotely operated and rapidly captures multiple targets in accurately-delivered nets, deployed in conjunction with electronic counter-measures for a layered defence, or in environments where electronic attack cannot be used.
It can be used as a standalone drone capture system or be integrated with a drone detection and security system to offer a highly capable and easy to operate counter drone solution. A single SkyWall Auto system can protect a high-value asset or multiple systems can be networked and deployed to protect a large site.
SkyWall Auto launches a projectile up to the target drone after the system has autonomously acquired and tracked it using world leading edge AI technology. The system can be permanently installed on a building or vehicle mounted for a mobile deployment.

Projectiles
SkyWall projectiles are re-useable and can carry a range of counter measures. The SP40 includes a parachute which controls the descent of a captured drone.
This minimises the risk of any collateral damage and keeps the drone intact. It allows forensic investigation and enables identification of the operator.
If the drone eludes capture, the projectile deploys regardless and controls the safe descent of the tethered components.
