Israeli company Omnisys is expanding its BRO (Battle Resource Optimization) suite with a next‑generation Counter‑Unmanned Aircraft System (C‑UAS) mission planning platform. It shifts counter‑drone defense from reactive interception to proactive, model‑driven prevention.
The enhanced BRO C‑UAS solution builds on a proven operational system to help users understand their arena in depth, anticipate likely UAS attack paths and significantly improve mission effectiveness against small drones, FPV strike platforms and loitering munitions using existing C‑UAS assets.
By leveraging a physics-accurate digital twin of the battlespace, BRO C‑UAS reveals low‑altitude approach corridors and coverage gaps caused by terrain, buildings and vegetation, and computes realistic detection, tracking and engagement envelopes for sensors and effectors. This enables planners to identify vulnerabilities, close blind spots, prioritize critical sites and routes and deploy scarce radars, RF sensors, jammers and interceptors where they deliver the highest operational impact under real terrain and spectrum conditions.
The platform’s AI‑driven optimization engine evaluates alternative deployment options and operational concepts. It recommends courses of action that enhance coverage and interception probability while reducing mutual interference and redundant overlaps.
Operating as an independent planning tool, it complements existing command‑and‑control (C2) and sensor‑control systems by focusing on mission logic and optimization rather than real‑time device control. This helps commanders reach better, faster decisions in a dynamic battlespace.
BRO C‑UAS is fully vendor‑agnostic. It allows customers to model mixed fleets of radars, EO/IR sensors, RF detectors, jammers and kinetic effectors from multiple suppliers, as well as known or generic hostile systems.
User‑sensitive performance parameters are configured locally through a secure configurator to ensure that all classified or proprietary information about own forces and hostile systems remains under sovereign user control while still enabling accurate modeling, simulation and optimization without dependence on an external party.
Beyond current operations, the system supports training, readiness and long‑term force development by providing a realistic environment for complex counter‑drone scenarios and data‑driven after‑action reviews. Acquisition and force‑development authorities can assess and compare alternative C‑UAS architectures, quantify operational trade‑offs and identify the most cost‑effective combination of sensors and effectors for each mission profile and budget.
