Rohde & Schwarz will bring its field‑proven ARDRONIS counter‑UAS suite to Counter UAS Technology Europe 2026, displayed inside a purpose‑built demonstration van. Over the three day conference from April 20th to 22nd, 2026, visitors will be able to see firsthand how the fully integrated solution meets the early‑warning and rapid‑response requirements of armed forces, security organisations and the wider defence industry, all neatly housed inside a van.
Rohde & Schwarz’ ARDRONIS suite improves the effectiveness and flexibility of its gapless jamming capabilities, extending its frequency range down to 100 MHz. It features a direction-finding cockpit that enables operators to monitor and control multiple stations simultaneously. This setup reduces the number of personnel required while supporting more efficient and coordinated operations.
The demonstration van features the complete ARDRONIS suite within a single, fully integrated environment. Guests are able to experience ARDRONIS Locate Advanced for detecting and locating drones and their operators. The van also includes ARDRONIS Effect, a multi band jammer with Smart Follower that automatically tracks and suppresses identified threats. Mobile ARDRONIS Detect and ARDRONIS Locate Compact units extend high performance detection and localization to rapid deployment and mobile scenarios, while the ARDRONIS Wi Fi modules ads the capability to identify and disrupt both commercial UAV communication links.
Rohde & Schwarz engineers will manage the unified cockpit, guiding attendees through the complete workflow from initial detection and bearing acquisition to jamming and engagement in a simulated environment.
On the third day of the event, at 15:15 GMT, Bob Moll, CUAS Market Development Manager, Rohde & Schwarz International GmbH, will present “ARDRONIS RF DF and Jamming Staying Relevant in the ©UAS Arms Race.” In his presentation he will walk the audience through a concrete field deployment example that ties low frequency detection, multi direction localization and high power jamming into one seamless workflow, demonstrating how the ARDRONIS system can be deployed on a mobile platform and integrated into any defense or security architecture to meet today’s evolving drone threats.
“Our ARDRONIS suite combines early warning detection, rapid response jamming and a unified cockpit into a field ready system,” says Bob Moll, CUAS Market Development Manager, Rohde & Schwarz International GmbH. “Demonstrating it on a mobile platform illustrates how easily it can be woven into existing defense and security architectures to meet the fast changing drone threat landscape.”
