Leonidas: A Mobile Microwave Counter Drone System
A mobile weapons system, capable of traveling autonomously to the battlefield and shooting down swarms of hostile drones using beams of microwave energy, is being developed by Epirus and General Dynamics.
Los Angeles-based defense technology company Epirus and a subsidiary of global defense contractor General Dynamics have teamed to create the Leonidas Autonomous Robotic vehicle (Leonidas AR), a mobile counter-UAS system.
The new weapon integrates Epirus’s Leonidas’s high-power microwave (HPM) counter-drone platform with General Dynamics Land Systems’ Tracked Robot 10-ton (TRX) unmanned ground vehicle, to counter the emerging threat posed by swarms of hostile drones.
A mobile weapons system... might seem like the stuff of science fiction, but it could be showing up soon in war zones across the world.
