Heathrow Airport deploys new drone-catching system to prevent Gatwick-style shutdown

15 January 2020

Heathrow Airport has installed a new drone-catching system
in a bid to avoid future shutdowns like the one that crippled Gatwick.

Europe’s busiest airport announced it is bringing a new monitoring system
that can detect and track drones entering its airspace.

The makers of the technology, Operational Solutions,
say it is also able to locate the pilot of a drone in any malicious attack.

Reading-based Operational Solutions said
they were under a strict nondisclosure agreement
but confirmed it had supplied a “bespoke” system to the airport.

It is unclear what systems the airport has in place
for taking out any rogue drones
once they are detected and such methods remain a closely-guarded secret.
