Do the impossible.
Air defence training is only as good as what you train against. We design and manufacture threat-representative target drones and counter-UAS systems in the United Kingdom, at a cost that makes realistic, repeatable training achievable.
Why the training gap matters right now.
This is a fast-moving picture, and the numbers below are current as of publication — but the direction is not in question: cheap, numerous drones are the threat crews now have to train against.
NATO allies committed over the next five years to drone and counter-drone capabilities, announced at the July 2026 NATO Defence Industry Forum.
NATO members — Poland, Romania, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Norway among them — reported drone incursions into their airspace through 2025, prompting NATO's Operation Eastern Sentry.
Typical cost of a one-way attack drone or decoy — against interceptor missiles priced upward of $200,000, and fighter sorties scrambled in response costing tens of thousands per flight hour.
Global spend on counter-UAS systems in 2026, and growing fast — a direct measure of how seriously militaries now take this threat.
Attack-drone targets reportedly struck across Iran during 2026's Operation Epic Fury — the Middle East is now as central to this picture as Eastern Europe.
