Wrap Technologies announces successful submission of C-UAS technology

Wrap Technologies (WRAP) announced the successful submission of its C-UAS as a technology solution for the U.S. Army’s xTechCounter Strike competition. Wrap’s submission, Project Merlin-1KC, introduces its patent pending modular, platform-agnostic defeat solution designed to physically disable hostile Group 1 drones. The system deploys lightweight, tethered projectiles that entangle drone rotors, with the goal of neutralizing threats without reliance on electronic warfare or directed energy. “We believe our MERLIN system represents a breakthrough in C-UAS offensive and defensive battlefield capacity,” said President and Chief Operating Officer of Wrap, Jared Novick. “It is designed to flip the cost curve by providing the Army and allied forces with a sustainable and scalable solution against the growing threat of unmanned systems. We believe our entry in the xTechCounter Strike aligns with our long-term strategy to expand Wrap’s technology portfolio beyond law enforcement, potentially creating new opportunities in defense while leveraging our proven cartridge manufacturing expertise.”
