Notice Information

Notice Title

Counter-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (CUAV)

Notice Description

The CNC are developing a Counter-Unmanned-Aerial-Vehicle capability in response to what is considered a fast and evolving threat from UAV. The solution must be a 'kinetic effector' system, that is designed to physically inhibit a UAV, rendering it non-operational. Current UK legislation does not support electronic effector use. There are various safety systems on CNC operational sites which could be inadvertently affected by use of an electronic effector. Please see the Specification for further details
