AI-Powered Counter-UAS Defense Systems

A full-stack platform to detect, track, and defeat drones and swarms—safe for civilian airspace, built for warfighting.

About AirShields

AirShields is a Saudi (GAMI-certified) defense tech company backed by Qudra Holding and Stallion AI Defense, bringing deep air-defense + AI experience and years of international R&D. It builds AI-driven counter-drone (and low-altitude threat) systems that detect, identify, track, and defeat hostile drones. The platform fuses radar/RF/EO-IR data with AI, and uses additive manufacturing to speed deployment, cut cost, and support local production—aimed at protecting critical infrastructure and national airspace across urban, border, and military scenarios.

The Problem

Wars of the future are here today.

Cheap autonomous drones are outpacing traditional air defenses.

Asymmetric Drone Threats

Low-cost, autonomous drones—often deployed in swarms—fly low, adapt quickly, and attack repeatedly, overwhelming legacy defenses.

Broken Defense Economics

Traditional air defense is overkill for small drones: slow to react, costly per interception, and risky around civilians.

Defeat Isn’t Reliable

Jamming fails against autonomous drones, lasers are expensive and restricted in urban airspace, and hard-kill options struggle with accuracy and collateral risk—especially against swarms.

The Solution
AirShields Sphere™

AirShields Sphere™ is our full-stack counter-UAS platform that protects a defined area with an end-to-end chain:

Detect → Identify → Track → Defeat

Sphere™ integrates distributed sensors, AI decision-making, secure command-and-control, and multiple interceptor options to counter single drones, coordinated swarms, and repeated attacks in real time.

AirShields Sphere™ is a platform architecture, not a single product—built to scale across environments, mission profiles, and future effectors.

Interceptor Portfolio

Jidar™ – Urban Counter-Drone Shield

An AI-managed aerial counter-drone system mounted on an unmanned aircraft, designed for urban and long-range stand-off interception, it deploys a patented lift-disruption payload that creates a controlled intercept cloud to disable hostile drones’ lift and control for precise defeat—even in dense civilian airspace. It can be delivered via modular cloud-drop dispensers for area coverage or a guided glide payload for safe-distance engagements, protecting sites like airports, ports, stadiums, critical infrastructure, dense cities, and border zones.

Interceptor Portfolio
Barq™ – Rapid Interceptor System

Barq™ is a short-range, rapid-response counter-drone interceptor for open, non-urban environments, using AI-guided, lightweight 3D-printed interceptors that can launch from ground, vehicle, airborne, or naval platforms and defeat drones with a patented lift-disrupter warhead that physically disrupts lift and control—ideal for borders, military bases, energy sites, and other high-risk open areas.
