LAFAYETTE

AI POINT DEFENSE

C-UAS

Lafayette is a close-range counter-drone turret for fast-moving FPV threats around bases and in dense urban environments. Passive acoustic sensing cues onboard visual tracking, while a lightweight motion platform directs a shotgun or rifle effector toward small drones.

[ENGAGEMENT RANGE]

5-200M

[MASS]

<20KG

[TRACKING ACCURACY]

<1.5 ARCMIN

Passive Detection

Acoustic sensing locates drone signatures without transmitting RF energy.

Visual Tracking

Onboard vision refines acoustic cues for precise tracking, including through brief occlusions.

Rapid Response

A lightweight motion platform is intended to move 5° in under 15 milliseconds.

Close-Range Defense

A shotgun or rifle effector addresses small FPV drones at 5–200 meters.
