UK Army Deploys First Passive Drone Detection System

The UK has deployed its first passive counter-drone detection system at a British Army base, with two domestic companies delivering the capability in under six months.

Known as Project Halo Shield, the system recorded 29 drone alerts during its first 17 days of live monitoring at Warminster Garrison.

Detections were recorded at distances of up to 5 kilometers (3.1 miles), although none of the drones posed a threat to the base.
