Representatives of Octave Defense familiarized students with acoustic detection

In today’s realities of the enemy’s use of a wide range of destruction means, effective construction of infrastructure protection requires an integrated approach that should use both elements of early detection of potential threats based on different principles of operation and elements of active protection.

Among the variety of threat detection means, acoustic detection means play an increasingly important role, providing:

  • Continuous monitoring of the air and ground situation around the infrastructure facility, alerting facility personnel in case of danger
  • Detection of a threat by acoustic noise (direction of movement, current coordinates with real-time display on an electronic map);
  • Ability to integrate into a decision support system in conjunction with video surveillance and radar stations;
  • Providing accurate targeting to countermeasures and firepower units.

Oles Zheleznyak, an engineer from the FENEK development team of Octava Defence, told the students of the Kyiv Aviation Institute during a lecture on modern methods of detecting air targets.

During the event, the lecturer focused on the latest development of Octava Defence – the acoustic detection system “FENEK”, which is designed to detect air threats by acoustic noise, determine the azimuth and angle of the target with further targeting of countermeasures and fire. “FENEK has been successfully tested, is being tested in units and is effective in detecting air targets on the battlefield. Therefore, acoustic target detection technology is a very promising area for development and implementation in the activities of combat units,” said Oles Zheleznyak.
