Russia has proposed an integrated “Anti-Drone Dome” concept designed to counter unmanned aerial threats through a combination of five defensive layers. The proposal comes from state-owned arms exporter ROSOBORONEXPORT and brings together surveillance, weapons, electronic warfare and physical protection within a coordinated defensive framework. The concept is intended to provide a layered approach to countering drones, combining different technologies rather than relying on a single interception method. Airspace surveillance would support the detection and monitoring of incoming unmanned aerial systems, while weapon systems could provide a means of engaging identified threats. Electronic warfare capabilities would form another layer, complementing physical protection measures intended to reduce vulnerability to drone attacks. The proposed architecture also includes a geoinformation system integrated into an automated command-and-control framework. This component would support the management of operational information and coordination among the different defensive elements. By bringing surveillance, electronic countermeasures, weapons and protective measures together, the concept aims to establish a more comprehensive response to evolving drone threats. However, the supplied report does not identify the specific systems included in each layer or provide details on deployment schedules, performance specifications or procurement commitments.
