During the trials, SHARK was fully integrated into the sensor-effector chain, enabling real-time passive detection, classification, and high-precision targeting of aerial threats. The system operated in coordination with other integrated technologies to showcase its effectiveness in live scenarios.
Marduk Technologies collaborated for several months with FMV, Swedish industry partners, and end-user representatives to prepare for the event. These efforts focused on ensuring smooth integration and operational readiness of the SHARK system as part of the GUTE project.
“At Marduk Technologies we are proud to see SHARK performing alongside world-class systems in one of Europe’s most advanced C-UAS solutions,” said Leet Rauno Lember, COO at Marduk Technologies. “This demonstration is a testament to the strength of our partnerships and a proof of how passive electro-optical targeting strengthens a layered defense against complex aerial threats.”
The GUTE project highlights Sweden’s focus on deploying flexible, mobile, and rapidly deployable counter-drone technologies. It also underscores growing European cooperation in strengthening airspace defence capabilities.
