Israeli defence technology company Omnisys is sharpening its focus on the fast evolving counter UAS domain with the launch of an upgraded BRO C UAS mission planning platform, positioning itself as a key player in the shift from reactive interception to predictive, model driven defence against drones, FPV strike platforms and loitering munitions. *

At the core of Omnisys’s offer is the BRO (Battle Resource Optimization) suite, an AI driven family of mission optimisation tools designed to plan, manage and debrief complex multi domain operations across air defence, air surveillance, electronic warfare, intelligence, spectrum management, border security and counter UAS. *

After more than 25 years in the defence and homeland security sectors, the company is clearly betting that sophisticated decision support and simulation will become as critical to force effectiveness as new sensors or effectors. The latest evolution of BRO C-UAS embodies that ambition. Rather than focusing on real time device control, the platform acts as an independent planning and optimisation layer that sits above existing command and control systems. Using a physics accurate digital twin of the battlespace, it models terrain, buildings, vegetation and spectrum conditions to reveal low altitude approach corridors, coverage gaps and realistic detection, tracking and engagement envelopes for deployed sensors and effectors.

For operators under constant drone threat, this matters. BRO C-UAS allows planners to test “what if” deployments, prioritise critical sites and routes, and allocate scarce radars, EO/IR cameras, RF detectors, jammers and kinetic effectors to where they deliver the highest marginal impact. An AI engine evaluates alternative force lay downs and concepts of operation, recommending courses of action that improve coverage and interception probability while reducing mutual interference and redundant overlaps.

One notable aspect of the system is its vendor agnostic architecture. Omnisys allows users to model mixed fleets of systems from multiple suppliers, as well as known or generic hostile platforms, with sensitive performance data configured locally via a secure tool. In an era of increasingly strict sovereignty requirements and multi vendor counter UAS architectures, that approach is likely to appeal to defence ministries wary of vendor lock in or external dependence for classified modelling.

The company is also looking beyond immediate operations. BRO C-UAS doubles as a training and force development environment, supporting complex counter drone scenarios, data driven after action reviews and comparative assessment of different counter UAS architectures.

For acquisition authorities grappling with budget constraints and rapidly evolving threats, the promise is the ability to quantify operational trade offs and define more cost effective mixes of sensors and effectors over the long term. Against this backdrop, the timing of Omnisys’s announcement is no coincidence.

Counter drone and loitering munitions defence will be a central theme at this year’s Defense Tech Israel event, and Omnisys can be expected to showcase the enhanced BRO C-UAS platform as part of a broader push to position itself as a reference provider of mission optimisation and digital twin based planning tools.
