Israeli counter-drone firm MCTECH RF Technologies has been selected to provide airspace security for the 2026 Maccabiah Games. The company will deploy its MC-Horizon D360s V5 system, which uses passive wideband RF sensors to detect commercial and custom-built drones, simultaneously locating both the drone and its operator, with real-time monitoring across multiple venues via a centralized command-and-control platform.
Highlights
- MCTECH RF Technologies has been officially selected to provide counter-drone airspace protection for the 2026 Maccabiah Games in Israel.
- The deployed MC-Horizon D360s V5 system uses passive wideband RF sensors to detect both commercial and custom-built drones across the electromagnetic spectrum.
- The system simultaneously localizes both the unauthorized drone and its remote operator, enabling faster and more targeted security responses.
- A centralized Command-and-Control (C2) platform allows operators to monitor multiple competition venues in real time from a single interface.
- The Maccabiah Games is Israel's largest international sporting event, making robust airspace security critical for participant and spectator safety.
Israeli RF technology company MCTECH RF Technologies has announced it has been selected to help secure the airspace at the 2026 Maccabiah Games. The Maccabiah Games is Israel's largest international sporting event, drawing athletes and spectators from around the world.
MC-Horizon D360s V5 System Capabilities
MCTECH will deploy its flagship MC-Horizon D360s V5 counter-drone system at the event. The system uses passive wideband radio frequency (RF) sensors to continuously monitor the electromagnetic spectrum, detecting a broad range of commercially available drones as well as custom-built unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).
Key system features include:
- Dual-target localization: Simultaneously pinpoints the location of both the drone and its remote operator
- Real-time alerts: Automatically dispatches warnings to on-site security personnel, reducing response times
- Centralized Command-and-Control (C2) platform: Allows operators to monitor multiple competition venues through a single interface, with live incident analysis
Airspace Security at Major Sporting Events
As drones become increasingly accessible, the risk of unauthorized incursions at large public gatherings continues to grow. With the Maccabiah Games expected to draw a significant international audience, MCTECH's deployment is designed to help ensure airspace integrity and the physical safety of all participants throughout the event.
