RANGER X
Modular Counter-UAS Electronic Warfare Platform
Military-grade counter-drone capability in a true man-portable configuration. 280 W of RF output across ten independent, field-replaceable RF modules, housed in an aerospace-grade high-impact carbon fibre chassis weighing under 25 kg. Engineered and manufactured in the United Kingdom by K9 Electronics.
Counter-UAS Capability, Re-engineered for the Dismounted Operator.
The RANGER X represents the latest evolution in portable counter-drone technology, delivering military-grade electronic warfare capability in a backpack form factor. With 280 W of RF output distributed across ten frequency bands and intelligent frequency-selective jamming modes, the RANGER X provides comprehensive protection against both commercial and military-grade unmanned aerial systems — while the high-impact carbon fibre chassis and extended battery capacity ensure reliable performance in the most demanding operational environments.
Ten Independent Modules.
Field-Replaceable. Future-Proof.
Every RANGER X comprises ten discrete RF modules, each with its own power amplifier, control system and antenna interface. Configure for the mission, swap modules in minutes without tools, and upgrade individual bands as threat landscapes evolve — without replacing the entire system.
-
01
Independent RF ModulesEach of the ten frequency bands operates as a fully autonomous RF module with its own power amplifier, control system and antenna interface.
-
02
Individually ProgrammableEvery module can be independently programmed for specific frequency ranges, power levels, and jamming patterns to match the operational profile.
-
03
Field-Replaceable, Tool-FreeModules swap out in minutes — reconfigure for different threat environments or replace damaged channels without returning to base.
-
04
Frequency Band CustomisationReplace modules with alternative bands to counter emerging drone technologies or address region-specific frequency allocations.
-
05
Protected InvestmentAs new drone communication protocols emerge, install updated RF modules rather than replacing the entire platform — extending operational relevance for decades.
The modular architecture dramatically reduces maintenance downtime and lifecycle costs. Individual modules can be serviced, upgraded, or replaced without removing the entire system from service.
Aerospace-Grade High-Impact Carbon Fibre.
K9 Electronics is the only manufacturer in the counter-drone jamming industry to adopt high-impact lightweight carbon fibre composite construction. This exclusive use of aerospace-grade materials delivers unmatched advantages over conventional metal-chassis systems.
- Strength-to-WeightExceptional structural integrity at <25 kg — significantly lighter than traditional metal housings.
- High-Impact ResilienceWithstands mechanical stress, drops and impacts that would damage conventional materials.
- Thermal ManagementExcellent heat dissipation properties support extended high-power operations.
- Corrosion-ProofUnlike metals, carbon fibre does not corrode — reliable in marine, desert and tropical theatres.
- Reduced Operator FatigueLightweight carry enables extended mission durations and improves mobility.
- Ergonomic CarrierIntegrates with standard military load-bearing equipment; 24X optical sight for directional targeting.

Where the RANGER X Operates.
Designed for rapid deployment and field reconfiguration, the RANGER X integrates into a wide range of military, law enforcement and critical infrastructure protection scenarios.
Military & Defence
Forward operating bases, convoy protection, perimeter security, special forces operations, counter-reconnaissance, VIP details, tactical patrols in hostile territory, and EOD support. Lightweight construction and modular RF architecture are particularly advantageous for SF units requiring maximum mobility across diverse theatres.
Critical Infrastructure
Power generation, oil & gas installations, water treatment, telecoms, transportation hubs (airports, seaports, rail), nuclear facilities, data centres and government sites requiring protection from aerial surveillance and drone-borne threats. The modular design supports facility-specific frequency configurations.
Law Enforcement & Borders
Counter-smuggling, prison security, border patrol, tactical operations (SWAT, hostage rescue), major event security, investigation of illicit drone activity, and protection of sensitive operations from aerial surveillance.
Events & VIP Protection
Political summits, international conferences, sporting events, public gatherings, diplomatic visits, executive protection, and temporary security zones requiring rapid deployment and flexible repositioning.
Emergency Response
Protection of emergency operations centres, securing disaster relief from unauthorised drone interference, maintaining communications security during crisis response, and preventing unauthorised aerial documentation of sensitive operations.
Tactical Patrol & Recce
Dismounted tactical patrols operating in dynamic threat environments where commercial and military UAS pose a persistent risk. Field reconfiguration without return to base keeps units operationally effective.
Why Operators Choose RANGER X.
Future-Proof Modular Design
Ten independent RF modules can be individually programmed and replaced with alternative frequency bands, keeping the system operationally relevant for decades.
Rapid Deployment
Backpack configuration enables immediate deployment by a single operator — ideal for dynamic threat environments and mobile operations.
Tactical Flexibility
Programmable jamming modes and field-replaceable modules allow operators to adapt to evolving threats and minimise collateral interference with friendly comms.
Multi-Threat Capability
Simultaneous engagement of multiple drone types across commercial and military frequency bands delivers comprehensive, layered protection.
Operator Safety
A 2 km+ engagement range provides critical standoff distance from potential threats — including weaponised UAS.
Reduced Lifecycle Cost
Modular architecture enables component-level maintenance and upgrades, dramatically reducing total cost of ownership versus monolithic systems.
Proven Reliability
Rugged military-grade construction tested in extreme environmental conditions ensures mission-critical reliability.
Industry-Exclusive Carbon Fibre
The only counter-drone system manufactured with aerospace-grade high-impact carbon fibre — delivering performance and portability that metal chassis systems cannot match.
