Built for Teams Who Handle Threats

Military

Counter-UAS Operations

Forward-deployed units seizing hostile drones in theater. Immediate signal kill prevents remote detonation, operator evasion, and intelligence loss during tactical recovery.

Law Enforcement

Crime Scene Evidence

Police and federal investigators securing drones used in smuggling, surveillance, or illegal activity. Preserve digital evidence chain of custody from field seizure to forensic lab.

EOD / CBRN

Explosive Ordnance Disposal

Bomb squads and EOD teams neutralizing drone-borne threats. RF isolation prevents remote triggering of payloads during render-safe procedures and controlled transport.

Intelligence

SIGINT & Forensic Analysis

Intelligence analysts and digital forensic examiners extracting flight data, telemetry, operator identifiers, and payload information from captured UAS platforms.

End-to-End Drone
Handling Workflow

When a drone is recovered in the field, whether hostile, abandoned, or part of an investigation, it becomes both a physical object and a digital evidence source. Mission Darkness secures that asset through every stage of the chain of custody.

Capture Phase
Phase 01

Capture

Immediate signal isolation. Stop remote detonation, piloting, data exfiltration, and evidence destruction the moment a drone is seized.

Transport Phase
Phase 02

Transport

Maintain continuous RF shielding during movement through urban areas, contested environments, or long-distance transport routes.

Analyze Phase
Phase 03

Analyze

Controlled, forensic-ready access. Extract flight logs, telemetry, video data, and operator information in a shielded environment.

Operational Detail
Phase 01 // Capture

Immediate Isolation of Signals & Control

The first priority when a drone is seized is stopping all communication. Modern drones maintain live links to operators, cloud services, GPS networks, and automated self-destruct or data-wipe triggers.

  • Remote detonation or activation
  • Remote piloting or flight commands
  • Live data exfiltration
  • Triggered evidence destruction
  • GPS or cellular-based tracking

Capture // Phase 01
Phase 02 // Transport

Shielded Movement to a Secure Facility

Once captured, the drone must be moved safely, often across RF-dense urban areas, contested environments, or long-distance routes. Unshielded transport creates critical risk.

  • Re-establish link with operator
  • Ping command-and-control servers
  • Broadcast identifying telemetry
  • Trigger firmware wipe or data purge
  • Activate geofencing or lockout

Phase 03 // Analyze

Controlled, Forensic-Ready Access

After reaching a lab or field station, teams must access the drone's interior, ports, and memory without exposing it to the outside RF environment.

  • Extract flight logs and telemetry
  • Recover video and sensor data
  • Identify operator information
  • Inspect payloads and electronics
  • Run forensic imaging tools

Captured Drones Are
Digital Threats

Without RF shielding, evidence can be erased remotely, payloads can be triggered, operators can evade identification, investigations can be compromised, and flight paths, logs, and intel can be lost permanently.

RF isolation ensures the drone remains silent, safe, and intact from the moment it is captured until the last byte of data is retrieved.

Warning

Evidence Erasure

Remote commands can trigger data wipes, destroying flight logs and forensic data before analysts gain access.

Critical

Payload Activation

Hostile drones may carry payloads that can be triggered remotely if the drone maintains any wireless link.

Evasion

Operator Evasion

Without isolation, operators can sever their digital connection to the drone, making identification impossible.

Loss

Intel Loss

Flight paths, communication logs, sensor data, and mission parameters can be permanently lost without shielding.
