Unmanned aircraft system/Counter-UAS

Counter-UAS Defense Course

Military Counter-Drone Training for Base Defense and Force Protection

Systematic anti-drone training through proven F3EAD targeting methodology.

Counter-UAS Defense (C-UASD) T1G’s counter-UAS training applies the same methodical F3EAD operational targeting cycle to aerial threats. Our systematic counter-UAS training develops hard skills through the complete engagement cycle: Detect → Identify (Friend or Foe) → Track → Defeat. Unlike simulation-based programs, T1G validates counter-UAS training through live engagements in our unrestricted training complex.

Exclusive Drone-on-Drone Training Capability

T1G uniquely offers live drone-on-drone intercept training— units practice pursuit, intercept, and kinetic defeat of hostile drones using friendly UAS platforms. This revolutionary counter-UAS training validates real-world engagement scenarios impossible to replicate through simulation alone.

We’re aware of no other U.S. facility providing drone-on-drone combat training. Your operators engage actual aerial targets. Real pursuit. Real intercepts. Real validation of counter-drone

UAS/C-UAS Courses

Build Your Custom Counter-UAS Solution

T1G customizes your training events to support your operational tempo and requirements. Whether you need standalone C-UAS training or integration with offensive drone operations, T1G will design the right solution for your mission profile and budget.

Progressive Counter-UAS Training Phases

From individual operators to unit-level integration, our C-UAS course builds proficiency through progressive phases. Teams develop detection muscle memory. Practice rapid threat assessment under stress. Validate defeat mechanisms against actual aerial targets.

This methodical counter-drone training approach ensures operators internalize the systematic thinking required to counter evolving drone threats in any environment. Not random drills. Not isolated skills. Systematic capability development through the full F3EAD cycle.

Including ISR-assisted detection – using friendly drones to detect enemy drones, extending your detection envelope beyond visual range. Your own UAS platforms become part of the counter-UAS solution, not just the problem to solve.

F3EAD-Based Training Modules

Our counter-drone training adapts the proven Find-Fix-Finish targeting cycle to your unit’s specific threat profile and defensive requirements. The same methodology that drives successful kinetic operations now applied to drone defense.

Find: Detect hostile drones before they complete their mission
Fix: Identify and track threats through your airspace
Finish: Defeat drones through validated engagement methods
Exploit/Analyze: Continuous improvement of your counter-UAS tactics
Disseminate: Integrate lessons across your force protection apparatus

Every phase trained with actual drones in unrestricted airspace. No simulation. No shortcuts. Real anti-drone capabilities developed through live engagement.

The Counter-Drone Training Environment

777 acres of unrestricted Class G airspace. Launch threats without coordination. Engage targets without range limits. Validate tactics without artificial constraints.

Your counter-drone training integrates with ground forces here because it rarely happens on base. At T1G, your C-UAS team trains alongside units conducting full-spectrum operations – exactly how you’ll employ counter-UAS based on mission requirements. No deconfliction meetings. No range scheduling conflicts. Real integration.

Build Your Counter-Drone Defense

Stop discussing drone threats. Start defeating them. This C-UAS course delivers validated counter-drone capabilities through live engagement and systematic methodology.

Counter-drone tactics achieve maximum effectiveness when operators understand both attack and defense. Explore our FPV Operator and 3D Printing courses for complete UAS competencies.
