DroneLight is a pulsed-laser hard-kill system that finds, tracks and neutralizes hostile drones in two seconds, over the city, on the power of a single vehicle.

  1. 0.0 s

    Detect

    Continuous 360° surveillance picks the threat out of a crowded urban sky.

  2. 0.4 s

    Track

    The turret slews at 120°/sec and locks the co-boresighted optics on target.

  3. 1.3 s

    Engage

    A high-energy pulsed laser fires for milliseconds. Eye-safe ranging confirms the hit.

  4. 2.0 s

    Neutralized

    Target down. The system is already on the next one.

Two seconds later.

A target recovered after a DroneLight engagement. No interceptor, no explosive, no debris field over the city.

Swarm-ready. Urban-safe. Vehicle-powered. Built by the engineers who put lasers into Israel's most advanced defense systems.

300 mm shared optical and laser aperture

Precision you can aim over a city.

Optics and laser share one 300 mm aperture, so the system fires exactly where it sees. Milliseconds of active firing and eye-safe ranging keep the people below out of the equation.

We don't fight the atmosphere. We use it.

Heat, haze and turbulence scatter a laser beam before it reaches the target. Our patented Lucky Acting technology and pulsed-laser drilling architecture put the energy where it counts, at a fraction of the power.

Ultra-efficient

High-rate engagement on just 4 kW. No dedicated power plant, no logistics tail.

Mission-ready

A massive reduction in size, weight, power and cost, so it fits where the threat is.

Urban-safe

Engineered for civilian and high-density environments from the first line of design.

Advanced physics, battlefield-ready.
