TSG is expected to unveil a new counter-drone system next month that, according to the company, will autonomously execute the entire engagement cycle—from detecting an aerial threat and fusing sensor data to making engagement decisions and activating the interceptor. If introduced as planned, the system will represent one of the first tangible demonstrations of the company’s expansion strategy, under which TSG has been broadening its portfolio beyond traditional command-and-control systems into complete Counter-UAS solutions.

“Today we already provide command-and-control integration with multiple sensor systems,” Golan Malka, TSG’s Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, told TechTime. “Within the next month we will have a fully operational system capable of closing the entire loop—from detecting an attacking drone to deploying a net-based interceptor that neutralizes it. We are at an advanced stage of presenting a complete end-to-end solution.”

Malka joined TSG after serving as head of the dual-use technology directorate at Israel’s Directorate of Defense Research & Development (DDR&D), where he worked to bridge civilian technologies with defense requirements. He says that experience, together with lessons learned from both the Russia–Ukraine war and recent combat in Israel, reinforced his belief that today’s battlefield innovation increasingly originates in the civilian technology sector.

“In Ukraine, they realized that if you want to field solutions quickly, you have to adopt civilian technologies,” he says. “We’re seeing the same trend here, with growing adoption of robotics and autonomy. Warfare is becoming increasingly urban and asymmetric, and wherever a robotic platform can replace a human—whether in the air, on the ground, underground, or at sea—it will. That’s the direction modern warfare is taking.”

According to Malka, TSG’s new system combines data from a wide range of sensors, including radars, RF sensors, electro-optical systems, and acoustic sensors. It filters operational noise, builds a unified situational picture, prioritizes threats, and assigns the most appropriate interceptor from a range of available countermeasures.

“Everything has to happen extremely fast,” he explains. “Detection, localization, and classification all have to be completed within milliseconds.”

The new platform builds on TSG’s broader expansion strategy over the past several years. The company has strengthened its capabilities through the acquisition of 3D View (Mabat 3D), a developer of LiDAR and 3D mapping technologies; Production Floor, which specializes in manufacturing and integrating defense systems; and Puzzle, which provides testing and deployment capabilities. TSG has also invested in Robotican, an Israeli developer of autonomous drones and drone interceptors. Together, these moves are intended to transform TSG from a provider of command-and-control software into a supplier of fully integrated Counter-UAS solutions.

According to Malka, the company is already seeing early demand for the new platform across several markets. Beyond protecting borders, military forces, and critical infrastructure, he identifies data centers as an emerging target market.

“We’re also entering the data center protection market,” he says. “The range of scenarios is very broad—from safeguarding critical infrastructure to homeland security. We already have activities in Israel, Europe, and the United States.”

Europe, he adds, is one of the company’s primary growth markets. “European countries are significantly increasing their defense budgets in response to the changing nature of warfare, yet many still lack capabilities comparable to those developed in Israel. We therefore see Europe as a strategic market and are working closely with local partners there.”
