Counter-Shahed capabilities from the leading Ukrainian specialists.
This threat is no longer theoretical.
One-way attack drones have rewritten the rules of security. A single Shahed-type UAV costs a fraction of what it destroys and they arrive in waves. Traditional air defence wasn't designed for this. Perimeter security wasn't built for threats that fly. And every month, the threat proliferates.
If your organisation operates energy infrastructure, industrial facilities, logistics hubs, or any site that cannot afford downtime — the question is no longer if you need counter-drone protection, but how fast you can stand it up.
A complete solution.
As the UK-headquartered international partner to the leading Ukrainian capability centres, Skua Defence offers a complete territorial monitoring and defence system that integrates detection, electronic warfare, interceptor drones, physical protection, cyber security, and command-and-control into a single operational picture.
We don't sell boxes. We build systems tailored to your site, your threat profile, and your rules of engagement.
Our end-to-end services.
Security Audit
Mapping of critical points, attack vectors, and vulnerabilities. RF, electro-optical, and infrared inspection of your site.
Training
Your people trained across five disciplines: command (C2), radio communications and electronic warfare, drone and interceptor operations, mobile response teams, and cyber/robotic systems. Training delivered through simulators, staff exercises, and live ground work.
Protection Design
Custom protection plans for your territory and individual assets. Threat scenarios modelled with probability and impact assessment. Anti-drone structure planning.
SOPs & Rules of Engagement
Operational procedures and response rules developed specifically for your context, whether that's a combat alert or a cyber incident. Periodically reviewed and updated.
Equipment & Integration
Interceptors (as appropriate), EW/RF systems, and sensor networks deployed and integrated into a unified command dashboard.
Testing & Validation
Full-chain modelling in real conditions. We measure detection time, response time, interception success rate, and impact on operations. You receive a report with findings and scaling recommendations.
Solutions for government and industry.
Industrial Operators Layered, non-kinetic defence including early detection, electronic countermeasures, physical hardening, and trained personnel who know exactly what to do when an alert sounds. We design protection systems that work within civilian constraints, regulatory frameworks, and insurance requirements.
For State & Military Organisations Scalable territorial defence that integrates with your existing command structure. Layered detection, electronic warfare, and kinetic interception, coordinated through a single operational picture. We provide the architecture, the training, and the battle-tested procedures to stand up counter-drone capability across an entire region.
Forged in the world’s most intense drone war.
Since 2022, Ukraine has faced the largest sustained drone campaign in history. Our team has been on the front line of that fight, protecting critical infrastructure, training operators, developing procedures, and refining systems under real combat conditions.
Full details available to qualified parties under non-disclosure agreement.
This isn't theory. Every element has been tested against live Shahed attacks on Ukrainian territory. We bring that experience to your defence.
Don’t wait for the first strike.
Start with a security assessment. We'll evaluate your site, map your vulnerabilities, and deliver a clear protection plan — typically within weeks, not months.
