DroneShield Releases Third-Generation Radio Frequency Intelligence Engine, Shares Plunge 13%

DroneShield (ASX:DRO) released the third generation of its proprietary radio frequency intelligence engine, RfAI-3, according to a Tuesday statement.The engine prioritizes wideband detection to sense drone threats beyond known and pre-classified emitters.
