Sentrycs, a subsidiary of Ondas Inc., has collaborated with Lockheed Martin to integrate its Cyber-over-RF technology into the Sanctum advanced modular defense architecture. This partnership aims to enhance protection against evolving unmanned aerial threats for military forces, homeland security, and critical assets. The integration will add a precise cyber-based detection and mitigation layer to Sanctum's multi-domain architecture.

Sanctum is Lockheed Martin's next-generation Counter-UAS (C-UAS) solution designed to tackle complex drone threats, including coordinated swarms and rapidly evolving UAS tactics. It combines advanced artificial intelligence, cloud-enabled data fusion, and a modular defense architecture to detect, track, analyze, and neutralize aerial threats in real time. The system is built for interoperability and mission flexibility, integrating multiple sensors, effectors, and command-and-control systems into a unified operational framework.

Key Features of Sanctum

Sentrycs' Cyber-over-RF technology will enhance Sanctum's capabilities by providing precise cyber-based detection and mitigation. This collaboration underscores the growing need for advanced counter-drone solutions to address evolving aerial threats in modern defense scenarios.

Ondas Inc. has secured new orders exceeding $40 million in June for its autonomous defense systems, including Counter-UAS solutions, loitering munition systems, ground systems, and related defense services. These awards reflect continued demand from governments and defense forces responding to evolving threats from unmanned aerial systems and the need for long-range precision strike platforms. The company has now secured more than $150 million in orders and awards during the second quarter of 2026, building on over $30 million in orders announced in May across air defense, autonomous ISR, robotic systems, and precision engagement technologies.

Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas, stated that the June orders demonstrate increasing demand for autonomous defense technologies capable of addressing modern warfare realities. He highlighted that Counter-UAS has become an urgent priority globally, with the next major wave of demand forming around Loitering Munition Systems (LMS) and affordable long-range precision engagement. This demand is particularly visible across Europe and the United States, where allied defense customers are strengthening both defensive and offensive autonomous capabilities.

A key component of Ondas' LMS strategy is its wholly owned UK-based subsidiary, Rotron Aerospace Ltd. Rotron recently completed a successful flight trial of its SkyLance system under the UK Ministry of Defence's Project Brakestop. SkyLance is a one-way-effect system designed to combine substantial operational range with precision engagement capability. The trial validated core technologies supporting the SkyLance platform and demonstrated Rotron's ability to rapidly deliver advanced capability in support of sovereign UK defense priorities.

SkyLance is designed, developed, and manufactured in the United Kingdom, providing sovereign control over critical propulsion, platform, and integration technologies. Rotron's operating model enables it to deliver advanced long-range strike capability at lower cost and greater speed than traditional procurement models. Ondas believes these characteristics are important as governments seek to replenish defense stockpiles, deploy autonomous strike capabilities at scale, and reduce reliance on legacy systems.

Ondas' autonomous defense platform supports the convergence of detection, intelligence, protection, and engagement capabilities. The company's C-UAS technologies address hostile drone threats, while its LMS capabilities provide scalable precision strike options. These systems are supported by Ondas' broader technology base across aerial intelligence, robotic platforms, electronic warfare technologies, and AI-powered command-and-control software.
