Israeli C-UAS Companies in Strategic Collaboration

Israeli company Axon Vision formed a strategic collaboration with ParaZero to introduce a new integrated configuration that marks the first expansion of the ForceField family to counter the growing drone’s threat.

While the initial ForceField configuration is designed to protect manoeuvring forces through an integrated kinetic response, the new integrated solution combines ForceField with DefendAir by ParaZero, the company’s autonomous net-based interceptor system, extending the ForceField family to operational environments where non-destructive interception is preferred, including critical infrastructure, such as airports, homeland security, energy facilities and other sensitive sites, while maintaining a common EDGE AI core across both configurations.

Built around ForceField’s Detect, Understand, Respond operational cycle; the integrated solution combines passive electro-optical detection, AI-driven analysis and engagement management with Man-on-the-Loop control, and DefendAir’s autonomous interception capability.  According to the companies, the result is a modular C-UAS solution capable of addressing a broader range of operational scenarios while maintaining the same operational workflow and decision-making architecture.

The integrated configuration was recently demonstrated during Axon Vision’s trial campaign in Israel, where the companies successfully validated the interoperability between the two systems under operationally representative conditions. The collaboration demonstrates ForceField’s open and modular architecture, enabling the integration of complementary interception capabilities to address different operational requirements while leveraging the strengths of each company’s technology.

Neri Zin, CEO of Axon Vision said that the collaboration with ParaZero demonstrates how the ForceField architecture can support complementary interception options. Ariel Alon, the CEO of ParaZero said that the two companies are expanding the range of operational solutions in C-UAS providing customers with an effective non-destructive interception option for protecting critical infrastructure, airports, energy facilities, homeland security assets and other sensitive sites.

The ForceField family is built around a common Edge AI core and supports multiple operational capabilities through its open and modular architecture. The architecture is designed to support the integration of complementary sensors and effectors, enabling the platform to address a broader range of C-UAS missions while maintaining a common operational foundation.
