Israeli Startup Esh-Tech Systems Unveils Dronelight Pulsed Laser Anti-Drone System
Israeli startup Esh-Tech Systems has publicly launched its Dronelight pulsed laser counter-drone system, ending years of deliberate low-profile operation. The Omer-based company, founded six years ago, emerges as a new player in Israel's C-UAS landscape, following Rafael's Iron Beam laser interceptor system being delivered to the military five months ago.
Highlights
- Israeli startup Esh-Tech Systems, founded six years ago and based in Omer, publicly launched its Dronelight pulsed laser counter-drone system after years of deliberate low-profile operation.
- The Dronelight unveiling comes five months after Rafael's Iron Beam laser interceptor system was formally delivered to the Israeli military.
- Dronelight uses pulsed laser technology designed to counter drone threats, though technical specifications such as range and power output have not yet been disclosed.
- Esh-Tech Systems' public debut marks Israel's continued expansion of multi-layered laser-based counter-drone defense capabilities.
Israeli Startup Esh-Tech Systems Unveils Dronelight Pulsed Laser Anti-Drone System
Israel's counter-drone sector has gained another entrant as Esh-Tech Systems, a startup headquartered in Omer, publicly revealed its Dronelight pulsed laser anti-drone system, ending years of deliberate silence. The announcement comes five months after Israeli defense giant Rafael delivered its Iron Beam laser interceptor system to the military.
About Esh-Tech Systems
Founded approximately six years ago, Esh-Tech Systems has intentionally operated below the industry radar, rarely disclosing details about its research and development activities. The public unveiling of Dronelight marks the company's formal entry into the open competition phase of the counter-UAS (C-UAS) market.
The Dronelight Pulsed Laser System
Dronelight employs pulsed laser technology and is designed to counter a range of drone threats. While Rafael's Iron Beam system is primarily oriented toward larger aerial threats, Dronelight's specific positioning and technical specifications have yet to be fully disclosed. Further details regarding range, power output, and intended customers are expected to be released in due course.
Israel's Rapidly Expanding Counter-Drone Ecosystem
The widespread use of drones in conflict zones in recent years has accelerated global demand for counter-drone technologies. Israel, a recognized hub for defense technology, has seen multiple companies enter the C-UAS space. The operational deployment of Iron Beam, combined with the public debut of Dronelight, signals that Israel is actively building a multi-layered laser-based air defense capability.
Esh-Tech Systems has not yet announced additional technical details, and further information is anticipated as the company formally enters the competitive C-UAS marketplace.
