Ukraine’s Phantom Defense unveils integrated counter-UAS ecosystem at Eurosatory 2026

Phantom Defense, a Ukrainian developer of counter-UAS systems, has unveiled its integrated drone detection and mitigation ecosystem at the Eurosatory 2026 international defence exhibition in Paris.

At its exhibition stand, the company showcased advanced UAV detection technologies, kinetic interception systems, and electronic warfare solutions, all managed via a centralised Command and Control (C2) platform designed for comprehensive situational awareness and defence management.

According to the developer, the ecosystem operates on the fundamental “Detect – Defeat” principle. Data captured by radars, electronic intelligence sensors, and video interception systems is seamlessly integrated into the C2 platform, creating a unified operational picture, delivering real-time recommendations to countermeasure operators, and logging the outcomes of each engagement.

The ecosystem features Specter electronic warfare systems engineered to disrupt UAV control, navigation, and video transmission channels; Blade multirotor interceptors and the Balaban fixed-wing interceptor drone; the Karakurt net launcher product line; the Streamhunter video interception system; and the Skydarix radar prototype, which utilizes an active electronically scanned array and AI-driven support for comprehensive 360-degree aerial target detection.

Phantom Defense emphasised that its solutions have been thoroughly combat-tested in Ukraine. Specifically, they were deployed within a dedicated project to protect urban infrastructure in one of Ukraine’s regional centres, contributing to the neutralisation of over 7,000 enemy UAVs.
