Special Temporary Authority application - Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:
DroneShield requests STA for two products whose purpose and emissions are similar: DroneGun MKIII, a pistol-style C-UAS RF disruptor; and DroneSentry-X, which in addition to passive detection also offers C-UAS RF disruption. The products will be field-tested as part of the TRIDENT SPECTRE exercises so the Navy can validate their performance against UAS.
