FLOCK is in active development. Visuals are representative. We are actively seeking collaboration with training providers.

FLOCK

A complete aerial target training platform for realistic drone threat exercises

FLOCK will combine expendable aerial targets, ground-based positioning, and scripted scenario control to enable repeatable counter-UAS training at realistic scale.

The FLOCK platform

Drone

Purpose-built expendable aerial target powered by our patent-pending Collective Phase Vectoring™ drive. A single rare-earth free motor with variable-pitch propellers replaces the four rare-earth motors found in conventional drones. Under 250g. Designed for injection-moulded production in the UK at a fraction of the cost of conventional drone hardware.

FLOCK drone target component.

Lighthouse

Lighthouses spread around the training area resolve drone positions and create a mesh network for communication. Battery-powered, tripod-mounted. Deploys in minutes.

Tripod setup for lighthouse deployment.

Controller

Portable controller connects to the lighthouse mesh network to manage target launch, flight paths, and exercise sequencing from a map-based interface. No advanced drone piloting skills required.

Range safety

Assured range safety is delivered through SLiNK-TECH's PORTAL: ground-based situational awareness, geofencing, and an independent emergency stop capability that immediately halts any drone posing a risk to people, assets, or the environment.

A blank canvas

We provide the platform. You define the missions. Scenarios are fully configurable, allowing you to design, iterate, and evolve training exercises as threats and objectives change.

Some example scenarios built with FLOCK

Simple

Single target exercise with a single approach corridor.

Simple phase training scenario.

Realistic

Dynamic single-target exercise with varying approach vectors and speeds.

Realistic phase training scenario.

Challenging

Mass saturation exercise with dozens of simultaneous targets across multiple approach corridors. Tests detection, prioritisation, and sustained engagement under the conditions most likely to be encountered in a contested environment.

Challenging phase training scenario.
