SECURIS: A Comprehensive Mobile Solution for Countering Drone Threats
Introduction of SECURIS at DSEi 25
On 3 September 2025, Allen-Vanguard unveiled a cutting-edge mobile counter drone trailer, SECURIS, at the DSEi 25 defense and security event in London. This innovative system, developed in partnership with leading firms Metis, Blighter, Openworks, and EdeyFX, aims to tackle the escalating risks posed by uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) employed by terrorists and extremist groups.
Advanced System Capabilities
The SECURIS system is a fully integrated, rapidly deployable counter UAS capability equipped with a sophisticated detection suite:
-
RF Detection: Utilizes Metis’s SKYPERION technology, which is operationally deployed by NATO allies, thereby ensuring high reliability.
-
Radar Target Acquisition: Features Blighter’s A400 series, known for its unparalleled global operational effectiveness.
-
Optical Recognition: Employs Openworks’ Vision Flex, recognized for its superior long-range imaging abilities and dual AI modules for enhanced detection, tracking, and identification.
These technologies are seamlessly combined with Allen-Vanguard’s ANCILE RF Effectors, creating a formidable defense mechanism against unauthorized drone activities.
Innovative Design and Mobility
The SECURIS trailer is not just technologically advanced; it is also designed for exceptional mobility and operational practicality:
-
Bespoke Chassis: Constructed by EdeyFX, the trailer is tailored based on extensive operational insights, ensuring optimal layout and ease of transport.
-
Scalability and Modularity: SECURIS’s architecture allows for customizable configurations, making it suitable for varying environments and threat levels.
-
Future-Proofing through Protection-as-a-Service (PaaS): The system’s modular nature facilitates continuous upgrades and the integration of emerging technologies as part of a service package. Clients benefit from ongoing advancements rather than one-time purchases.
Insight from Leadership
Bobby Strawbridge, President of Allen-Vanguard, expressed enthusiasm about the launch: “The introduction of SECURIS marks a significant advancement in mobile counter-drone technologies. Collaborating with agile SMEs—Metis, Blighter, Openworks, and EdeyFX—has allowed us to craft a system that meets the urgent needs of our customers. This partnership embodies a best-in-class integration of specialized systems, tailored for a landscape where drone threats are increasingly sophisticated. The adaptability of SECURIS ensures that we remain at the forefront of counter-UAS innovations, delivering unparalleled defense solutions.”
Conclusion
The SECURIS mobile counter drone system represents a paradigm shift in addressing the evolving landscape of aerial threats. With its robust technological foundations and commitment to continual improvement, SECURIS promises a reliable and efficient defense mechanism that aligns with modern security demands. Attendees at DSEi 25 can explore the SECURIS trailer at Allen-Vanguard’s stand S5-540 from 9-12 September 2025, highlighting a pivotal moment in counter-UAS capabilities.
