At the opening of Eurosatory, the world’s premier land defense and security exhibition, Rohde & Schwarz unveiled THORIS, the core of its fully integrated, autonomous drone countermeasures capability. The system combines our years of expertise in sensors, electromagnetic warfare, and system integration to create a modular architecture that enables high-definition detection, tracking, classification, and disruption of drone threats in all modes of operation.
THORIS is based on a hierarchical architecture that integrates RF detection, radar surveillance, and EO/IR imaging to create a single, real-time situation map. RF antennas rapidly classify radio-controlled drones, while radar provides distance, speed, and direction information even when radio signals are weak or nonexistent. Furthermore, EO/IR cameras enable high-definition visual confirmation and precise tracking. All three data streams are processed under a unified command and control environment, allowing operators to understand the situation with high resolution. This integrated situation map is then passed on to all interception methods, such as RF jamming and electronic attacks, and, if those methods are unsuitable, it connects to the “THORIS Laser Combat System (LCS),” which was unveiled at last week’s ILA Berlin Airshow. The LCS is equipped with a high-energy laser from TRUMPF and addresses threats at close range and overhead.
Markus Eiber, Vice President of Drone Countermeasures Systems at Rohde & Schwarz, stated: “This layered, intercept-independent architecture is essential to combat today’s increasingly diverse drone threats. By developing all equipment in Germany, we ensure supply chain autonomy and keep lifecycle costs low. We also provide a solution that can be easily integrated into existing national defense systems, such as mobile transport vehicles, tactical vehicles, or fixed systems protecting critical infrastructure.”

THORIS features a platform-independent design. Its modular design allows customers to adjust the number of sensors and processing power to suit mission requirements without redesigning, from small vehicle-mounted packages to large-scale fixed systems. Furthermore, the system supports a universal interface for interceptors, allowing for seamless transitions to any chosen neutralization technique, such as RF jamming, electronic attacks, or other non-kinetic means. Throughout this process, a human-in-the-loop process is maintained to ensure compliance with national and international rules of engagement.
