Discover how this drone could transform our perception of the sky and its countless possibilities.
Technological evolution and response to modern threats
The KARMA system, developed by the ELT Group, marks a significant advance in the fight against enemy drones, surpassing its predecessor Adrian, in service since 2015. Designed for rapid and effective detection, KARMA incorporates advanced capabilities based on artificial intelligence, enabling it to recognize and identify Class 1 and 2 UAS platforms.
Its innovative design, which avoids the use of radar, makes it discreet and difficult to detect, while offering continuous 360° surveillance thanks to a suite of infrared cameras. By combining proprietary algorithms and an intuitive man-machine interface, KARMA ensures accurate classification of threats, reinforcing the security of critical infrastructures.

Advanced detection and monitoring capabilities
KARMA stands out for its ability to identify Class 1 and 2 UAS platforms without resorting to radar, making it less detectable in modern warfare environments. Thanks to a suite of infrared cameras, it provides continuous 360° surveillance, enabling uninterrupted vigilance. The integration of artificial intelligence algorithms within the Command and Control (C2) system guarantees reliable threat detection and classification.
This advanced technology provides operators with a complete local aerial picture, optimizing real-time threat recognition and identification. KARMA represents a major step forward in the protection of military and civilian infrastructures against today’s airborne threats.
Integration and versatility in defensive operations
The KARMA system stands out for its flexibility of integration with wider air defense systems, easily adapting to a variety of sensors and tools to meet specific mission requirements. Its modular design allows deployment on both old and new-generation military vehicles, as well as civilian platforms, making KARMA ideal for border surveillance, strategic site protection and urban infrastructure defense.
By enhancing traditional methods of combating drones with its electronic warfare capabilities, KARMA provides robust and continuous defensive cover, in both civilian and military domains, against modern threats.
