Eurosatory, as expected, is heavy with counter-uncrewed aerial systems and the first day of the show saw several systems unveiled, including two containerised projects to meet specific operational scenarios.
US company Ondas Holdings and Estonia’s DefSecIntel presented containerised counter-uncrewed aerial system (CUAS) systems at Eurosatory in Paris this week with the latter drawing on its country’s experience and the former Israel’s experiences.
Ondas unveiled three products at Eurosatory 2026 – two uncrewed system products and a C2 system designed as a core for integrated missions – joining dozens of companies pushing the uncrewed and technology barrow at the exhibition.
The uncrewed systems are MODUS (Modular Under-Layer System) mobile CUAS platform and Iron Wave deployable robotic combat suite, with the third new platform being Lados, a layered autonomous defence operational C2 layer.
