🇳🇬 In response to drone-based attacks by insurgent groups, Nigerian startup Terra Industries has shifted its focus from civilian drone applications to developing defense technologies aimed at countering these threats.
✈️ The company, led by CEO Nathan Nwachukwu, has introduced a range of new systems, including:
▪️interceptor drones designed to neutralize hostile UAVs;
▪️mine-clearing unmanned vehicles;
▪️ground platforms capable of detecting improvised explosive devices (IEDs);
▪️battlefield intelligence software to improve situational awareness for troops in combat zones.
▫️ Collaboration with Terra is essential due to high troop casualties from IEDs, Major General Babatunde Alaya of Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria said.
