About Skapion
Skapion is designing its system around simultaneous drone attacks rather than individual aircraft. The platform combines detection, target allocation, engagement management and effectors so multiple incoming UAVs can be tracked and countered within one coordinated defence workflow.
The architecture can be mounted on vehicles or installed at fixed sites to protect manoeuvring forces and critical infrastructure. Distributed processing and autonomous coordination are intended to maintain the engagement chain when communications are degraded, while operators retain command over the mission and use the system to manage hundreds of concurrent threats.
