Danish counter-UAS company MyDefence has introduced the Custom Drone Library, a new produce designed to give armed forces direct control over their drone intelligence and detection infrastructure.
The system combines a pre-configured library of known drone threats with tools for operators to capture and build their own detectors in the field. Once identified, new drone signatures can be shared across deployed systems, allowing entire forces to recognize and counter hostile drones faster and with greater accuracy.
The library is much like a deep catalog of drone characteristics including radio frequency data. When a hostile drone is identified, the operator can record the signal and transform it into a detector, essentially a program or algorithm that scans the spectrum and notifies those in the field that a drone has been spotted. The system then distributes the detector across the force, ensuring that once one unit encounters a threat, all units are prepared for it.
Modern drone warfare is marked by rapid shifts in frequency, flight behavior, and payloads. Preloaded threat libraries provide essential baseline protection, but adversaries adapt quickly. MyDefence’s approach gives militaries the means to adapt just as quickly, creating and owning intelligence they can deploy across networks without waiting for vendor updates.
“Adversaries are constantly changing the rules of drone warfare. With the Custom Drone Library, our forces are no longer just reacting, but actively shaping the battlespace with intelligence they own, control, and can deploy across their entire network” said Dan Hermansen, CEO, of MyDefence.
The system was developed and validated in collaboration with a NATO allied armed force, proving its effectiveness in live operational conditions.
“Collaboration with a NATO allied armed force has been essential in shaping and testing the Custom Drone Library. It proves that this capability is not only trusted and field-ready, but also indispensable for modern spectrum warfare,” said Hermansen.
