DETECT · IDENTIFY · LOCATE · TRACK

You see what is transmitting.

WarDragon is a passive RF sensor that demodulates supported drone communications, resolving them to identified aircraft, operator locations, and live tracks. Detections are delivered into TAK or the platform you already operate, and detection runs on the device with no cloud connection and no recurring fee.

INCLUDED

Detection, with no recurring fee

Detect it. Identify it. Locate it. Track it.

WarDragon does more than report that RF energy is present. It demodulates supported drone communications to extract unique identifiers, aircraft position, pilot location, home point, and live flight telemetry, which is intelligence an operator can act on rather than an alert someone still has to investigate.

Detect. Continuous passive monitoring across the standards drones actually use, including aircraft that never broadcast Remote ID and are invisible to a receiver watching only for it.

Identify. Demodulation rather than energy detection. Supported communications resolve to unique identifiers, so an aircraft is a specific aircraft rather than an unexplained return.

Locate. Aircraft position, pilot location, and home point where the transmission carries them, which is what turns a contact into somewhere a unit can be sent.

Track. Live flight telemetry correlated across the duration of a flight and published as CoT into the operating picture your team already runs.

From DJI OcuSync through MAVLink, mLRS, and ELRS telemetry, WarDragon turns raw RF into identified aircraft and tracks. Encrypted DJI identification, including O4, is decoded with DragonScope. The library of supported standards grows with each software release, and every kit in the field receives it.

Standard antenna configurations detect a wide range of drone signals at estimated distances of up to 5 km. High-gain configurations extend detection beyond 10 km under favourable conditions. These are estimates rather than specifications: RF environment, antenna height, line of sight, and aircraft type all materially affect what a given installation achieves.

Detection is included, permanently.

Detection is included with the kit and stays included. There is no recurring fee to keep it running and no connection to our servers. DragonScope is a separate capability rather than an unlock: it decodes encrypted DJI identification, including OcuSync 4, so a flight resolves to a serial number, a pilot location, and a takeoff point. Organisations that need attribution add it. Organisations that need to know an aircraft is there do not.

Detection you own, on software you choose

A detection kit needs software to be useful. Ours is built so that software can be yours. Detections publish in an open format, the sensor runs on its own hardware, and the price is on the product page, which together put covering a site within reach of a single budget line.

Software agnostic. Detections publish as CoT, the format TAK and TAK-compatible systems already read. If you have no system yet, routing options are configured as part of the deployment.

Runs on the device. Detection operates locally and independently, with no cloud connection and no dependency on our servers remaining available.

Priced in the open. Every system is priced on its product page. No quote gate and no discovery call before a number is available.

Grows after purchase. The demodulation library expands with each software release, and kits already in the field receive it. Capability is not frozen at the date you bought.

Same detection, different builds

Mobile deploys from a vehicle or command post within minutes of arrival. Drop-In installs inside housings already in the field, including CCTV and LPR cabinets, pole boxes, and surveillance trailers. Pro runs ARM processing. Elite adds x86 processing and a second software-defined radio, with the headroom to run a wider set of demodulators concurrently. Coverage distance comes from antenna selection, not from tier.

DragonOS

The open-source foundation for software-defined radio

DragonOS is the globally adopted Linux platform that puts a comprehensive ecosystem of open-source RF and SDR tools in one ready-to-use environment. Free to download, community supported, and used by SDR enthusiasts, developers, researchers, and RF professionals around the world.

DragonOS is free, open, and independent of anything sold here. It is where this work started and it is not a lead magnet.
