We are the first to invent and patent a family of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and counter-drone warfare platforms with the “THE-BEES,” a warfighting architecture that can contribute to 21st-century artificial intelligence (AI)-driven electronic warfare. These platforms are designed to enhance close-range air defense system-of-systems and operational and multi-mission platforms architecture that can help to shield against close-range missiles, UAVs, and drone swarm threats

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 fundamentally changed the world, shifting global geopolitics and ushering in a new era of artificial intelligence (AI) UAVs and drone warfare. This new era of warfare is not exactly new; these were well-known issues and concerns during the Cold War era and thereafter among G-7 industrialized nations. The US and NATO high-ranking military experts recognize that – yet no solutions have been found to overcome future UAVs and drone warfare challenges.

The complexity and danger of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and drone warfare strategies are not new to the global industrialized nations

In the 1980s, during the post-Cold War era, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and drones carrying nuclear and other Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), Chemical, Biological, Radiological (CBRN), and their delivery systems became a significant security concern among seven industrialized nations - the United States, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the U.K., and Canada. (Ref: In 1997, the United States Air Force Air Power Studies   "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Weapons of Mass Destruction: A Lethal Combination?").

In 1997, the US Air Force Air Power study stated: "The potential exists for the proliferation of both UAVs and WMD to become widespread and thus a major security concern. There is no clear solution to this problem." (Ref: Abstract page v), It also indicates that "WMD delivery systems often receive less attention than do the weapons themselves."

The US Air Force Airpower studies stated, "The United States may one day face an enemy that has obtained the capability to employ WMD on UAVs in battle. It is prudent to do everything in our power to prevent this from happening.

Who We Are and Our Mission

We are a Canadian company. For the past 16 years (since 2009), we have been researching, designing, inventing, and patenting a new and improved "technological invention" - a close-range "Air-based air defense system" concept that comprises UAVs and drone-on-drones warfare platforms - that can contribute to the United States and NATO for their future military modernization plans for modern warfare.

The technological invention also comprises modern deterrence-architecture platforms that can contribute to modern and extended deterrence strategies against future complex threats involving WMDs, artificial intelligence (AI), and autonomous robotic electronic warfare.

It was clear that recent drone warfare has significantly reshaped the military deterrence strategy by shifting traditional deterrence to modern deterrence. Deterrence strategies are mostly developed by governments and their militaries. However, contributions from scientists, independent scholars, academics, and private researchers, including political and innovative thinkers, are not uncommon- these contributions go back many decades.

21st-century warfare requires 21st-century deterrence: (Ref: The George C. Marshal Europe Center for Security Studies Security Insights - 21st Century Warfare Requires 21st Century Deterrence: by Colonel Jeffrey W. Pickler)

Family of systems of systems architecture - UAVs and drones defenses

The technological invention relates to a large family of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and systems-of-systems, a “family of systems” architecture platform that is interconnected and integrated with manned, unmanned, and space and ground systems, to conduct a range of complex military operations and missions for close-range defense.

A family of systems air-based air defense systems is designed specifically to enhance next-generation air dominance and information superiority. In particular, it aims to support future modern deterrence - the possibility to stop modern nuclear and other WMD disasters with the new evolving technologies.

Mother hen and parasite chicks warfare architecture platform

The Mother unmanned aerial vehicle is referred to as “Mother UAV or Mother Hen”, which is capable of carrying a large number of sub-unmanned aerial vehicles referred to as “sub-UAV or Chicks”, and the sub-UAV carrying modules of mini-unmanned aerial vehicles, referred to as “mini-UAV or Grand Chicks”, and the systems and mechanisms to launch and recover sub-UAVs and mini UAVs on the mother-UAV in mid-air.

Furthermore, having integrated communication and operational systems, wherein the Mother UAV and the sub-UAVs and mini UAVs communicate with each other using multiple communication and operating platforms, such as satellite, remote, and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven systems - together to fly the mother UAV, sub-UAVs, and Mini-UAVs, as a one big family.

Technological Invention of close-range air defenses - the fourth-layer interceptors

The "Technological invention" is a new and improved multi-layer close-range Air-based air defense system - the fourth-layer interceptors designed to detect, suppress, and destroy close-range threats.

The "Technological invention" is a new and improved multi-layer close-range Air-based air defense system - the fourth-layer interceptors designed to detect, suppress, and destroy close-range threats.

This close-range Air-based air defense system is designed mainly to find counter-drone solutions to address the long-overdue security issues and concerns of UAVs and drones carrying nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction (WMD), chemical, biological, radiological, and their delivery systems, which have not received much attention since the Cold War era.

The President of the United States, Executive Order 12938 on November 14, 1994, declared a national emergency to address the danger of WMD and delivery systems, and their continued declaration

“—— the proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons (“weapons of mass destruction”) and the means of delivering such weapons, constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat. — Presidential Executive Order 14 November 1994". (Ref: The US Air Force Air Power Study Chapter 3, page 13)

"—— Weapons of mass destruction—nuclear, biological, and chemical—along with the systems that deliver them, pose a major threat to our security and that of our allies and other friendly nations. Thus, a key part of our strategy is to seek to stem the proliferation of such weapons and to develop an effective capability to deal with these threats. President William J. Clinton - A National Security Strategy of Engagement and Enlargement." (Ref: and Credit: The US Air Force Air Power Study Chapter 1 Introduction - page 1).

The United States, NATO, and the EU are now urgently seeking counter-drone capabilities to address the rapid rise of UAVs and drone warfare

The United States, NATO, and the EU are urgently seeking a close-range air defense system that can integrate into space- and ground-based architectures to shield against close-range missiles, UAVs, and drone threats.This urgency often centers on identifying technological solutions to address significant gaps in modern-era warfare that are critical to 21st-century artificial intelligence (AI) - enabled autonomous electronic warfare and multi-systems that can contribute to modern deterrence and extended deterrence to defeat enemy attacks on the US, NATO, and all their allies.

Golden Dome multi-layer missile defense system

In January 2025, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to establish the “Golden Dome” multi-layered missile defense shield to protect the United States from foreign threats. The system is intended to intercept everything from ballistic missiles to drones. The Golden Dome features thousands of satellites and armed interceptors positioned in orbit to shoot down missiles during their initial launch phase or mid-flight. The United States President's executive order 14186 in January 2025

The "Golden Dome" missile defense system is a proposed multi-layered US missile defense system driven by the US president's executive order in January 2025 - designed to shield North America from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missile and nuclear attacks – intended to detect and destroy before they launch (boost phase) or during the flight.

This is an advanced version of the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), also known as Star Wars, proposed in the early 1980s. The key feature of the system is to combine space-based sensors and ground-based interceptors, interconnected with artificial intelligence (AI), to provide a protection shield from the ground to space.

Russia and Ukraine's drone strikes, and the Middle East's drone warfare, are a wake-up call for the US and global air defenses

June 03, 2025, the top US Air Force Gen. David Allvin calls the Ukraine drone strikes a wake-up call for US and global air defense and “a wake-up moment” for militaries around the globe, both for defensive and offensive posture. Also said, "We need to pay more attention to that. "(Ref: DefenseNews) The General also said the future US air defense network must be able to counter small drones. "However, he said he believes the initial phase of Golden Dome development will not include closer-range defensive measures." (Ref: Air&Space Force magazine).

“On June 6, President Donald J. Trump signed the "Unleashing American Drone Dominance" executive order outlining how the United States would up its drone game in both the commercial and military sectors, including how it would deliver massive amounts of inexpensive, American-made, lethal drones to U.S. military units to amplify their combat capabilities….

… The US sectary of War said: "Next year I expect to see [drone] capability integrated into all relevant combat training, including force-on-force drone wars," the secretary said. "I will soon be meeting with the military services to discuss transformational changes in warfighting doctrine," Hegseth said. "We need to outfit our combat units with unmanned systems at scale. We cannot wait” (Credit and Ref: Dec. 2, 2025 | By C. Todd Lopez, Pentagon News)

The European Union's "drone wall" initiative

The European Union's "drone wall" initiative, officially known as the European Drone Defence Initiative, is a proposed multi-layered network of radar, acoustic sensors, jammers, and interceptor drones aimed at protecting the continent's airspace from unauthorized drone incursions. The system relies on advanced surveillance technology rather than physical barriers.

Global Superpowers - Arms Race for Swarming AI UAVs and Drones

The global superpowers, the US, Russia, and China, admit that 21st-century modern warfare significantly differs from traditional warfare. They also acknowledge that whoever develops a drone-on-drones swarm warfare strategy combined with artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities will play a significant role in the next generation of warfare and dominate the world.

The United States:

Aug. 28, 2025 - the US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth calls for an Anti-Drone Task Force to stop a large-scale missile attack. Secretary Hegseth said via a video message released to the public. "Our job here at the Pentagon — when you think about it — is to prepare for the threats of the future and build a force to match them, and defeat them, and outpace them," - "And there's no doubt that the threats we face today from hostile drones grow by the day," he added. (Ref: The US Department of War - Matthew Olay-DoD news)

On August 28th, 2023, the US Deputy Secretary of Defense, Kathleen Hicks, announced what she called "the Replicator initiative," an effort to modernize the American arsenal by adding fleets of Artificial Intelligence unmanned, relatively cheap weapons and equipment.(Official Discusses Progress on Replicator - The US Department of War).

Russia:

In September 2017, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave a televised address - a million Russian school children watched - "Artificial intelligence is the future, not only of Russia, but of all of mankind". Further said;"Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world.” The Russian leader predicted that future wars will be fought by drones, and "when one party's drones are destroyed by drones of another, it will have no other choice but to surrender." (Ref-Credit: Axios Media stated )

China:

Now, China is gearing up for a new kind of drone warfare equipped with an Artificial Intelligence (AI) swarm of bees concept to overpower its adversaries and the enemy.
