ARES represents the first European project focused on active orbital defense and multi-domain HPM protection.
This home-grown innovation addresses a strategic gap – previously, Allies relied on either kinetic missile defenses or non-European tech for such capabilities. ARES thus offers NATO a sovereign, next-generation tool, strengthening the Alliance’s technological edge and reducing dependence on external providers.

ARES SHIELD AI
ARES SHIELD is the first European defence platform designed natively for space, with scalable deployment across air, land, and maritime domains. Built on a modular, software-defined architecture, the system integrates artificial intelligence, multisensor fusion, and directed energy technologies.
Multispectral sensors enable real-time detection and classification of satellites and drones, while the AI platform analyzes incoming data and recommends precise HPM engagement. Solid-state HPM effectors disable electronic systems using non-ionizing pulses, delivering scalable protection — from portable units to base and critical infrastructure defence.
One platform. Multiple carriers. ARES SHIELD is among the global pioneers shaping the future of defence systems.
