Counter UAS Technologies

Innovate UK is offering up to £5 million for UK registered organisations to develop counter drone technologies. These technologies must work in both civil and military settings. Counter UAS means systems that can detect, track, or stop unwanted drones. You could develop radar systems, jamming equipment, or other anti-drone solutions. The funding is for dual use technologies that have both civilian and defence applications. This is a competitive grant with multiple organisations sharing the total pot. No specific deadline is mentioned so applications may be rolling.

This grant is for UK registered organisations developing anti-drone technologies. You need expertise in areas like radar, electronic warfare, or security systems. It suits tech companies, defence contractors, or research organisations working on drone detection and countermeasures.
