Four interconnected tracks — spanning drone defence, deep and precision strikes, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and frontier defence technologies — together form the full stack required to detect, defend, and operate across next-generation multi-domain defence systems.

Four interconnected tracks — spanning drone defence, deep and precision strikes, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and frontier defence technologies — together form the full stack required to detect, defend, and operate across next-generation multi-domain defence systems.

Drone Defence

Mission: Launch 20 European partnerships to deploy drone defence systems with <5% penetration by hostile drones.

Challenges that you face include:

  • Small, low-RCS drones evade radar tuned for jets

  • Plastic frames and adverse weather reduce radar and IR visibility

  • Autonomous navigation defeats RF detection, spoofing, and jamming

  • Swarm saturation overwhelms sensors, operators, and interceptor stocks

  • Kinetic interceptors cost €50k+ against €500 drones

Solutions you will find at DTM.Defence include:

Detection & Tracking

multi-static radar, passive RF, EO/IR sensors, acoustic detection for low-RCS targets in cluttered and adverse environments

Non-Kinetic Methods:

adaptive EW suites, AI/ML sensor fusion, jamming, spoofing, cyber effects, high-energy lasers and high-power microwave (HPM) systems

Kinetic Interceptors:

drone-on-drone systems, rapid-fire guns and missile-based interceptors for cost-effective defence against swarms

& more

Deep & Precision Strikes

Mission: Run 20 precision strike pilots with >90% success against air defences.

Challenges that you face include:

  • Guidance chains over-reliant on GPS, vulnerable to EW

  • EO/IR seekers degrade in fog, smoke or at night

  • Strike missile range capped at 500 km without upgrades

  • PGM stockpiles too small for sustained high-intensity conflict

  • Swarm-scale loitering munition unmet due to weak production

  • Mid-cap innovations blocked by closed integration standards

Solutions you will find at DTM.Defence include:

Resilient Guidance & Targeting

vision-based navigation, terrain-following radar, passive RF geolocation, quantum-enhanced INS, anti-jam GNSS

All-Weather Seekers:

multispectral EO/IR sensors, radar/EO fusion chips, neuromorphic image processors, metamaterial apertures

Low-Cost Precision Kits:

miniaturised MEMS guidance units, chip-scale IMUs, low-SWaP GPS anti-jammers

Loitering Swarm Tech:

distributed autonomy software, mesh networking radios, lightweight high-density batteries, edge AI decision engines

Open Systems Integration:

modular avionics, standardised digital interfaces, software-defined mission controllers

Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance

Mission: Build a European smallsat ISR constellation to cut detection-to-decision from hours to minutes.

Challenges that you face include:

  • ISR satellites lack persistent coverage, forcing expensive UAV use

  • Cloud cover blinds EO sensors, disrupting targeting and monitoring

  • Sea clutter obscures vessels, weakening maritime ISR contracts

  • UAV/UGV ISR feeds delayed; intel reaches command hours too late

  • ISR data formats fragmented, hindering real-time multi-INT fusion

  • GPS-guided ISR assets jammed, spoofed, or denied outright

Solutions you will find at DTM.Defence include:

Advanced Sensing Payloads:

EO/IR, SAR, RF, hyperspectral, multi-domain UAV/UGV sensors

Low-Latency Exploitation:

optical downlink, UAV edge processing, onboard AI tasking for real-time intel

Resilient Comms & Links:

protected satcom, anti-jam UAV datalinks, optical/laser comms hardened against EW

AI-Driven Fusion & Analytics:

multi-INT fusion, autonomous target recognition, anomaly detection across space–air–ground ISR

Autonomous ISR Platforms:

long-endurance UAVs, tactical UGVs with modular sensor suites, distributed swarm ISR nodes
