Dedrone by Axon Named Growth and Innovation Leader in Frost & Sullivan’s 2025 Frost Radar: UAS Communication Disruptors

We’re proud to announce that Dedrone by Axon has been recognized as the Growth and Innovation Leader in the 2025 edition of the Frost Radar: UAS Communication Disruptors report. This prestigious recognition highlights Dedrone’s market leadership, cutting-edge technology, and rapid global growth in the counter uncrewed aerial systems (C-UAS) space.

What is the Frost Radar?

The Frost Radar is an analytical benchmarking system designed to evaluate companies based on their innovation and growth performance across key sectors. The 2025 UAS Communication Disruptors edition focuses on companies that develop technologies to mitigate UAS, specifically, tools that jam, spoof, or cyber-disrupt drone communication and navigation systems.Unlike traditional industry reports, the Frost Radar doesn’t just identify market size and trends, but instead spotlights who is shaping the industry’s future. Companies are assessed using two primary indices:

1. Growth Index: measures momentum and strategic execution
2. Innovation Index: evaluates scalability, research and development abilities, product portfolio, and alignment with emerging market trends.

Why Dedrone by Axon?

1. Technology Innovation

Dedrone’s diverse portfolio of C-UAS solutions, including DedroneDefender 2, DedroneTactical, and DedroneOnTheMove, all of which detect, track, identify and mitigate (DTI-M) drones across diverse operational scenarios—from frontline defense to urban security operations. Dedrone’s use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML)-driven analytics allows the operator to make real-time decisions, and selectively smart-jam specific drone frequencies and protoocls - minimizing collateral damage and simultaneously extending range.

2. Global Growth

Dedrone has achieved remarkable growth, with deployment sites in 33 countries and counts six of the G-7 nation governments as customers.

3. Strategic Partnerships

Since being acquired by Axon in 2024, Dedrone has accelerated its go-to-market capabilities, accessing Axon’s global public safety network and expanding R&D efforts and capabilities. Dedrone also formally announced a partnership with Thales to integrate Dedrone’s vehicle-mounted, mobile C-UAS system, DedroneOnTheMove onto the Thales Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicle. This solution can be added to any vehicle to provide real-time airspace situational awareness and security to vehicle occupants, while on-the-move.

4. Market Leadership in a Critical Space

With drone threats constantly escalating and evolving—from battlefield reconnaissance and one-way attacks, to smuggling in prisons and disruptions at public events—Dedrone’s solutions are more relevant than ever. Frost & Sullivan noted that Dedrone is "undoubtedly a leader in the counter-drone technology market," poised to remain at the forefront as regulations evolve and commercial demand increases.

The Future of Airspace Security

As UAS continue to grow in both capability and ubiquity, the need for intelligent, adaptive, and precise countermeasures is clear. Dedrone by Axon’s inclusion in the Frost Radar and its selection as the standout Growth and Innovation Leader, underscores the company’s critical role in defending against these ever-evolving threats.For organizations seeking trusted, field-proven airspace security solutions, Dedrone is leading the charge—making the skies safer, smarter, and more secure.
