PC2 Pro

The PC2 Pro is a passive radio frequency drone detection system it identifies unauthorised drone activity by intercepting and analysing the communication signals between a drone and its controller, without transmitting any signal of its own. That passive architecture is the system's defining operational characteristic and its most significant tactical advantage.

An active detection system announces its presence. Radar emits. Jammers broadcast. Any adversary conducting RF reconnaissance of a protected site identifies an active counter-UAS installation and adapts their approach accordingly. A passive system emits nothing. The PC2 Pro can operate at a sensitive facility indefinitely without the site's counter-UAS capability ever being detectable to an approaching operator conducting pre-incursion reconnaissance.

Aerosmart supplies the PC2 Pro across African markets with site assessment consultation, deployment planning, and the regulatory guidance that electronic detection equipment deployment requires in each destination country.

Passive Detection Advantage

Silent Operation. No Signature ,
No Warning.

Passive RF detection intercepts the communication that a drone and its controller exchange continuously throughout the flight. That link carries identifying information the protocol, the frequency hopping pattern, the modulation scheme, and in many commercial drone systems, embedded identification data that the PC2 Pro analyses to classify the drone type and estimate both the aircraft position and the operator position.

The operator position is the detection output that matters most for security response. Detecting a drone tells the security team that an incursion is occurring. Locating the operator tells them where to send the response team to end it. A passive RF system that identifies both is providing actionable intelligence rather than an alert that leaves the response team searching.

For African critical infrastructure protection oil and gas facilities across Nigeria, Angola, and Mozambique, government installations in capitals across the continent, and the mining concessions where reconnaissance drone activity precedes organised theft operations the combination of covert operation and operator localisation is what converts detection capability into effective security response.

Detection and Classification

Know What Is Flying and Who Is Flying It

The PC2 Pro does not simply register that an unidentified aerial signal is present. It classifies the detection identifying the drone make and model from its RF signature, distinguishing between authorised operations and unauthorised incursions where a whitelist is configured, and building a track history that shows the flight path over time rather than a single point detection.

That classification depth is operationally significant. A security team that knows a specific consumer drone model has entered the protected airspace responds differently than one that knows a long-endurance fixed-wing platform is conducting a systematic survey pattern. The response is proportionate to the threat because the threat is characterised rather than merely detected.

Detection logs and track histories provide the forensic record that incident investigation, pattern analysis, and where applicable, prosecution require. Repeated incursions from the same operator position, at consistent times, following consistent flight patterns, build the evidence base that converts a series of individual alerts into an actionable intelligence picture.

Deployment and Integration

Fixed Protection for Permanent Assets

The PC2 Pro is designed for permanent and semi-permanent installation at facilities requiring continuous airspace monitoring. Once installed, it operates unattended, continuously monitoring the protected airspace and generating alerts for the security operations centre without requiring an operator to activate or directly monitor the system.

Integration with multi-layer counter-UAS architectures is supported. The PC2 Pro's passive RF layer complements video-based detection (VDC2 Pro), fixed sensor arrays (FPC1), and GNSS integrity monitoring (FS1 Spoofing), with each system covering detection scenarios that the others may miss.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions - PC2 Pro

Where can I buy the PC2 Pro drone detection system in Africa?

The PC2 Pro is available from aerosmart with delivery across 14+ African countries.

Contact our team for site assessment, pricing, and regulatory guidance.

How does passive RF drone detection work?

Passive RF detection intercepts and analyses the radio communication between a drone and its controller without transmitting any signal.

The system identifies the drone type from its RF signature and estimates both the drone position and the controller position.

Why is passive detection better than active radar?

Passive detection emits no signal, meaning the counter-UAS capability itself is undetectable to adversaries conducting RF reconnaissance of the protected site.

Active radar announces its presence and allows an approaching operator to adapt their method.

Can the PC2 Pro locate the drone operator?

Yes. By analysing the controller-side transmission, the PC2 Pro estimates the operator's position, providing the actionable intelligence that enables a security response to the source rather than only tracking the aircraft.

Does the PC2 Pro detect autonomous drones flying without a controller link?

Passive RF detection requires an active communication link between the drone and its controller.

For drones operating fully autonomously on pre-programmed missions without active control transmission, complementary detection modalities such as video-based detection are required, which is why multi-layer architectures are recommended.

Is the PC2 Pro legal to operate in African countries?

Electronic detection equipment operates under telecommunications and national security regulatory frameworks that vary by country.

aerosmart provides written regulatory guidance for each destination market with every purchase.

Can the PC2 Pro integrate with existing security systems?

Yes. The PC2 Pro produces real-time alert output for integration into security operations centre infrastructure and supports multi-layer counter-UAS architecture deployment alongside video and GNSS-integrity detection systems.

What is the price of the PC2 Pro?

Pricing varies by configuration and coverage requirement.
