Uzbek company Electronic Autonomous Solutions presented a range of counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) at the Africa Aerospace and Defence 2026 exhibition. The announcement covers multiple systems currently in production for vehicle, maritime, and stationary use.
Why it matters
By integrating radar, infrared, and radio-frequency sensors into a networked platform, these systems move toward a multilayered detection strategy that avoids reliance on any single sensor type. This modular approach aims to improve drone identification accuracy across borders, airports, and maritime environments.
The EAS Dome stationary system utilizes a multi-sensor array combining radar, electro-optical, infrared, and radio-frequency detection modules. Data from these modules is processed via AxionLab, which aggregates inputs into a unified network to identify drone threats.
The players
Electronic Autonomous Solutions
An Uzbek private enterprise licensed by the Ministry of Defence that develops drone detection and jamming hardware.
AxionLab
The integrated software platform operated by Electronic Autonomous Solutions to manage data from multiple sensor modules.
The details
The product suite includes the handheld Fowler for mobile defense, the vehicle-mounted EAS AirShield 1MS FULL, and the boat-mounted 1N FULL, both featuring radio-frequency jamming. Stationary protection is provided by the EAS Dome, which fuses multiple sensor modalities to cross-reference targets. AxionLab acts as the central software hub, providing the integration layer required to correlate detections across the various modules.
Timeline
September 2026: Electronic Autonomous Solutions appeared at the Africa Aerospace and Defence exhibition.
Early 2027: The company plans to integrate interceptor drones into the EAS Dome stationary platform.
The Tech Race
The demonstration at the Africa Aerospace and Defence exhibition marks a shift for Electronic Autonomous Solutions toward seeking international partnership opportunities. The company aims to position its modular sensor-fusion architecture against established global counter-drone defense providers.
These systems are currently designed for government and commercial infrastructure protection, such as airport security or border monitoring. Deployment depends on regional regulatory approval and the specific procurement requirements of the defense organizations partnering with the firm.
The takeaway
The move to integrate interceptor drones signifies the company's transition from passive detection to active threat neutralization. Observers should track the early 2027 technical validation of the EAS Dome interceptor integration to assess the system's performance metrics.
What happens next
The company is scheduled to integrate an interceptor drone layer into its EAS Dome system by early 2027.
