Bstarcom to Demonstrate Counter-Drone System for Polish MoD
South Korea's Bstarcom announced its participation in a Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) combat demonstration hosted by Poland's Ministry of Defense in April. As part of a government-led export program, Bstarcom is also scheduled to deliver its hybrid "3-in-1" counter-drone system to Poland in July. The demonstration highlights growing NATO-aligned interest in advanced C-UAS technologies.
- Bstarcom's engagement with Poland's defense sector includes signing Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) worth $5 million with Polish, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian defense companies at the 2025 International Defense Industry Exhibition (MSPO) in Poland. - The company's "3-in-1" hybrid system, designated as an innovative product by South Korea's Public Procurement Service, has already been delivered to the Republic of Korea Marine Corps. - Bstarcom specializes in drone frequency detection and jamming solutions, with some of its systems utilizing spoofing technology to misdirect and capture drones by manipulating their satellite navigation signals. - This demonstration is part of Poland's broader "drone revolution," a military-wide push that includes a planned 2025 budget of at least $55 million for UAVs and the establishment of a new Drone Force. - Poland is also developing its own domestic counter-drone system called "San," which will use 30mm cannons with programmable ammunition and is expected to be operational by the end of 2026. - The initiative reflects a wider NATO priority to fast-track counter-drone technology, with officials emphasizing the need to field low-cost sensors and effectors in months, not years, to counter cheap drones without using expensive missiles. - NATO's focus on counter-drone capabilities includes Technical Interoperability Exercises (C-UAS TIE) to ensure systems from different companies and nations can work together seamlessly, a key goal being "zero-second integration."
