The ultimate advancements of the F700 are its new flexible undercarriage, which

offers interchangeable counter measures for single, multiple or swarm-based

threats and its new lightweight carbon fiber frame, enabling greater

athleticism and speed. The F700 can carry multiple types of anti-drone

countermeasures and deploy them in real-time, based on the dynamic threat that

is detected miles beyond the protected area. The undercarriage features pogo

pins and payload snaps that are integrated with AI-enabled firing and flight

software.

The F700 offers significant payload capacity to handle situations over

civilians where zero collateral damage is a requirement. AI decisions are now

made in real-time to select the appropriate effectors for the detected threat.

Complex algorithms for flying in urban areas are now supported. Heavier drones

are tethered or parachuted with controlled descent into predetermined safe

zones. The F700 is equipped with ground and airborne networked radar and

corresponding optics giving our users total situational awareness and

autonomous precision. F700 is custom designed and manufactured in the USA.

"We have advanced the DroneHunter F700 so that it can deliver any ordinance

necessary to stop drones and to protect stadiums, refineries, campuses and

entire metro regions," said Fortem Technologies CEO, Timothy Bean. "It is the

premiere AI-enabled interceptor drone in the world."

Fortem is developing several DroneHunter mitigation types including directed

energy.
