Vendor-Neutral UAS/C-UAS Proving Ground
Bring your own radar, RF, or EO hardware — we provide the complete range and full operational support.
Our independent, vendor-neutral test facility is purpose-built for objective UAS and C-UAS evaluation. You supply the sensors and systems; we deliver the dedicated flight lanes, ground tracks, USV pond, control room, safety oversight, and experienced operations team.
No vendor bias. No hidden agendas. Just clean, repeatable data in a fully supported environment.
Test smarter. Validate faster. Own your results.
Rugged Training Environment
Our facility delivers a true rugged, real-world training ground built for demanding UAS and C-UAS operations. Set in remote rural terrain with open fields, uneven ground, and natural environmental challenges, it replicates the harsh conditions of actual deployments.
Hardened UAS flight lanes and ground lanes support realistic detection and tracking validation in dust, wind, and variable weather. The fortified control room provides constant test direction and safety oversight, while secure, no-frills on-site quarters keep teams mission-ready for multi-day or multi-week campaigns.
Optional USV pond testing adds integrated air-surface realism (permitting as required).
Vendor-neutral and fully supported with Drone Ops-as-a-Service, Red Team threat emulation, dedicated test directors, and daily debriefs. Secure on-site storage and priority retainers available for recurring users.
Train hard. Test real. Get results.
Secured Storage & Living Quarters
Our facility provides flexible, secured on-site storage for short- and long-term needs, keeping your UAS, C-UAS hardware, sensors, and support equipment protected and mission-ready. Units with 24/7 surveillance, access controls, and customizable racking safeguard assets from hazards and unauthorized entry, supporting everything from quick demos to extended campaigns.
Complementing this, our on-site living quarters enable uninterrupted multi-day or multi-week operations, cutting out commutes to maintain operational tempo. Secure, functional accommodations feature private berths, communal mess and briefing areas, high-speed data links, and essential utilities—all within a fortified compound. Built for mission efficiency, these quarters support team rest, coordination, and debriefs directly on the range, ensuring focused, high-output testing.
