Counter-UAS and security systems by industry Where TKG systems work.
The same software and sensor layers, configured for the site, the threat and the people operating it.
Defense and installation protection
Bases, installations and forward sites need one picture of ground and air activity that every operator, unit and agency can share.
Why it matters now
Barksdale Air Force Base confirmed multiple unauthorized drones in its airspace in March 2026 and briefly ordered personnel to shelter in place.
WLOX · Mar 2026Joint Task Force-Southern Border detected at least 378 drones along the border in one month this fall, most of them carrying cameras.

Counter-UAS and airspace security
Small drones are hard to see and harder to confirm. Layered sensing correlates RF, radar and imaging into one confirmed track an operator can act on.
Why it matters now
Pilots and others report more than 100 drone sightings near U.S. airports every month. The FAA logged 601 from April through June 2026.
DroneLife, FAA data · Jul 2026Most site operators have few legal options to stop a drone in flight. Detecting it, confirming it and documenting it for law enforcement is what they can do.

Critical infrastructure
Substations, water systems, dams and industrial sites already own cameras and access control. Those systems need to work with perimeter and airspace detection, not beside it.
Why it matters now
Gunfire at two North Carolina substations in December 2022 left about 45,000 people without power for four days.
E&E NewsA Tennessee man pleaded guilty in 2025 to plotting to attack Nashville’s power grid by flying an explosives-laden drone into a substation.

Wind energy
Wind farms must light their turbines for aviation, and neighbors want dark skies. SkyGuard handles both, and secures the site in the same system.
Why it matters now
Iowa lawmakers introduced a 2026 bill to require aircraft detection lighting on new wind farms and to retrofit existing turbines.
Iowa Capital Dispatch · Feb 2026About 27% of Iowa’s wind turbines already use radar-triggered lighting, so lights stay off until an aircraft approaches.

Ports mix land, water and air activity across a wide area, with vessels, vehicles, people and drones in the same picture.
Why it matters now
Port Canaveral recorded more than 500 drone incursions in 2025, including flights over cruise terminals and aerospace and military operations.
Port Canaveral · Jun 2026The Seaport Security Act of 2026 would restrict low-altitude airspace over seaports. Ports describe today’s federal authority over drones as fragmented.

Correctional facilities
Secure facilities have to watch the perimeter and the airspace above it, with a small operations staff.
Why it matters now
In August 2026, Virginia staff intercepted a drone delivery at Sussex I State Prison carrying 17 cellphones and a pound of suspected methamphetamine.
Virginia DOC · Aug 2026New York reported 12 known drone incidents at state prisons. A March 2026 drop inside Marcy Correctional Facility included two eight-inch knives.

Drones near the runway. Intruders at the fence. One picture.
Airports have to tell a hobby drone from a manned aircraft, and a fence alarm from a real breach, in seconds and without disrupting operations. TKG combines radar, ADS-B, RF sensing and cameras so airport security sees air and ground threats on one map.
