On September 25, DefSecIntel Solutions and Origin Robotics announced that the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to launch a partnership aimed at delivering Europe’s first operational, integrated counter-drone shield.
The announcement was made during Estonian Defence Week and marks a significant step toward the creation of the Baltic Drone Wall, a cross-border system designed to detect and defeat hostile drones.
The collaboration addresses the rapidly growing threat of unmanned aerial systems (UAS), which requires mobile, cost-effective solutions capable of neutralizing diverse UAV types with multiple countermeasures.
EIRSHIELD: A Combat-Proven C-UAS Platform
DefSecIntel Solutions brings its EIRSHIELD system, a modular, turnkey C-UAS platform developed using operational insights from Ukraine. The system integrates advanced technologies from leading European companies and offers long-range detection, electronic warfare (EW) capabilities, and multi-layer sensor fusion.
“Politicians have called for a Drone Wall. We are ready to build it,” said Jaanus Tamm, CEO of DefSecIntel Solutions. “This is not a concept. This is a live, integrated system that’s ready today and already protecting Europe’s eastern flank. This is not a roadmap or a PowerPoint. We offer European end-users a turnkey C-UAS solution with the best available combat-proven effectors in the Baltic region against low-flying hostile drones.”
Origin Robotics’ BLAZE Interceptor
Origin Robotics contributes BLAZE, an autonomous drone interceptor designed to track, identify, and destroy high-speed aerial targets using onboard AI and computer vision. The man-portable system is equipped with an HE fragmentation warhead for precise threat elimination, even in contested environments.
“The need for a system like BLAZE is immediate; it’s driven by real-world operational demands that are unfolding right now,” said Agris Kipurs, CEO of Origin Robotics. “It delivers fast-launch interception at a fraction of the cost. No theory—this is already in the hands of real users.”
A Scalable, Multi-Layered Defence
The integrated solution combines long-range radar, signal disruption, and autonomous aerial interceptors, providing a fast, modular, and scalable defence against:
- Loitering munitions
- Fixed-wing reconnaissance UAVs
- Swarming drone tactics
Fully operational and built on combat-proven platforms, the system is designed to adapt to rapidly evolving threat environments.
