// UNMANNED SYSTEMS AND NEXT-GEN WARFARE TERM
C-UAS
C-UAS refers to Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems, which are technologies and strategies used to detect, track, identify, and neutralize unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), commonly known as drones. These systems protect sensitive areas, personnel, or infrastructure from drone threats.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
C-UAS (Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System) encompasses integrated technological solutions and operational protocols designed for the detection, identification, tracking, and neutralization of adversary Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), employing kinetic, electronic warfare (EW), or cyber countermeasures to mitigate security risks posed by hostile drones across military and civilian applications.
BACKGROUND
The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 is a United States federal law which specifies the budget, expenditures, and policies of the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) for fiscal year 2026. The NDAA is an annual act of Congress that redefines the U.S. military budget.
