UAV Detector Series
When operators asked for a sovereign UK counter-UAS capability they could trust, we listened — and we built it.
Designed, engineered and manufactured in the United Kingdom, the UAVTEK product family delivers a fully sovereign approach to drone detection, identification and protection for defence, security and critical infrastructure environments.
UAVTEK Sense is a UK-designed and UK-built portable counter-UAS detection platform delivering real-time awareness of drone activity across complex environments. Using passive RF sensing, direction finding and Remote ID decoding, it detects, tracks and identifies both compliant and non-cooperative UAVs without emitting signals or interfering with communications.
UAVTEK Protect is a UK-designed and UK-built precision counter-UAS capability that extends detection into response, enabling authorised operators to mitigate hostile or unauthorised drone activity through precision RF defeat techniques while maintaining operational control and flexibility.

UAVTEK Sense Handheld
The UAVTEK Sense Handheld has been developed for operators who require immediate access to counter-UAS capability in dynamic and fast-moving environments. Compact, lightweight and field-ready, it provides frontline personnel with a practical tool for mobile drone awareness and threat assessment without the need for fixed infrastructure or vehicle integration.
Designed for dismounted and rapid-response operations, the UAVTEK Sense Handheld enables users to quickly build an operational picture of the airspace around them while maintaining freedom of movement. Its intuitive interface minimises training burden and allows operators to focus on decision-making rather than system management.
Multiple UAVTEK Sense Handheld units can operate collaboratively across a site or venue, enabling distributed direction-finding and enhanced spatial awareness of drone and pilot activity. This makes the system particularly effective for stadiums, public events, VIP security operations and other large or complex environments where rapid localisation and coordinated response are critical.
The platform is optimised for a wide range of operational scenarios including perimeter security, patrol operations, convoy protection, temporary site security, public event protection and expeditionary deployments. Ruggedised hardware and low-power operation support extended use in demanding environments.
The UAVTEK Sense Handheld is currently available on the TRIPLTEK Mini rugged platform (USA designed) and the Samsung XCover device manufactured in Vietnam, providing flexible hardware options to align with mission requirements and customer preferences.
Integrated into the wider UAVTEK ecosystem, the UAVTEK Sense Handheld can operate as an independent capability or as part of a layered counter-UAS deployment, supporting broader situational awareness and coordinated response operations across distributed teams.
UAVTEK Protect
The UAVTEK Protect system has been engineered to provide rapidly deployable counter-UAS protection for both mobile and fixed-site operations. Designed around a magnetic mounting architecture, the system can be installed quickly onto vehicles, structures and buildings without permanent modification, enabling flexible deployment across a wide range of operational environments.
Optimised for convoy operations, temporary security tasks, expeditionary deployments and infrastructure protection, UAVTEK Protect enables operators to establish an active counter-UAS capability wherever it is required. The magnetic mounting approach supports rapid installation, removal and repositioning, reducing deployment time and operational overhead while allowing systems to be adapted to changing operational requirements.
Its compact and low-profile design makes the system suitable for both overt and discreet deployments while maintaining effectiveness in demanding environments. Vehicle power compatibility and flexible mounting options support sustained operation during extended missions.
Multiple UAVTEK Protect units can operate together as a coordinated system, increasing directional accuracy, improving coverage and enabling layered protection across larger or more complex sites. Teaming multiple units allows operators to create controlled protection zones designed to deter, deny or prevent unauthorised drone access into sensitive areas.
This makes UAVTEK Protect particularly suited to applications including VIP movement, convoy security, critical infrastructure protection, border operations, stadiums, public events, temporary operating bases and high-security facilities where adaptable counter-UAS coverage is essential.
Integrated within the wider UAVTEK ecosystem, Protect can operate independently or alongside UAVTEK Sense deployments to support coordinated detection, tracking and response operations across distributed operational areas.
