Counter-UAS

On 19 October 2026, the Nordic defence publication Defence Nordic published an article on Wiseled’s counter-UAS work, based on an interview with Chief Commercial Officer Jim Pascoe. The article was written by Oliver Bærentsen.

The article covers W-Q62, an ecosystem that extends the widely deployed Axis Q62 PTZ platform with IR illumination, extended-range thermal capability and laser-based modules. The objective is to make drone detection and classification affordable enough to deploy at scale. W-Q62 is currently in prototype testing.

En the interview, Jim Pascoe referred to the operational lessons from Ukraine: coverage is achieved by enhancing mass-produced capability, not by building costly one-off systems. W-Q62 applies that principle by upgrading a field-proven platform rather than replacing it.

The approach targets the gap between commercial security equipment and full military-specification procurement, which is increasingly relevant to critical infrastructure operators, border agencies and security integrator
