Sentrycs, a provider of counter-UAS solutions, has been awarded a significant contract to install C-UAS systems in Latin America for a national defense project.

In the initial phase, Sentrycs will enhance airspace security by deploying multiple advanced C-UAS systems across critical areas, including military bases, special operations units, VIP convoys, and national borders. This deployment aims to combat narcotics trafficking and other criminal activities.

The project will feature fixed, portable and vehicle-mounted systems as part of a multi-layered defense strategy that maximizes operational flexibility. Sentrycs’ vehicle-mounted kits provide discreet, low-footprint protection ideal for on-the-move operations, such as safeguarding VIP convoys, and special forces missions. These advanced solutions integrate Sentrycs’ Cyber-over-RF technology with a mitigation system, plus an additional jamming layer required by the end-user for potential escalations.

Jason Moore, Sentrycs’ Chief Revenue Officer, commented, “Recent events in Latin America, including heightened defense challenges and increased unauthorized drone use in criminal activities, underscore the pressing need for advanced airspace security.

“This milestone contract is a testament to Sentrycs’ ability to deliver unmatched solutions for today’s most pressing drone security challenges. We are proud to play a pivotal role in enhancing national security for this region and look forward to supporting this air defense strategy with our innovative technologies.”

Sentrycs secured the contract after rigorous trials and operational tests, outperforming more than a dozen competitors. Its ability to operate stealthily, remaining undetectable to third parties during use, was a key deciding factor for this sensitive project. Additional factors included the support of a dedicated local partner and a successful reference from an existing in country customer that has worked with the Sentrycs platform for multiple years.
