SNARE-1A.

A soldier-carried, close-range counter-sUAS concept focused on final-layer survivability. This page communicates the operational problem, design intent, and development posture without disclosing protected technical details.

Operational role

Final defensive layer

SNARE-1A is aimed at the last moments of survivability when speed, proximity, and user burden matter more than broad-area solutions.

Design intent

Compact and rapidly accessible

The concept is being shaped around quick access, intuitive use, and compatibility with realistic soldier load and movement constraints.

Transition posture

Built for the next partner

Documentation and concept framing are oriented toward engineering, prototype, test, manufacturing, and acquisition conversations.

Interactive tactical concept demonstration

Explore the ground-user view.

Move friendly and threat markers, adjust the conceptual engagement radius, measure distance and bearing, and generate demonstration SITREP, MEDEVAC, CAS, and SNARE launch messages. The Kharg Island-area image is used only as visual context; the grid, measurements, positions, and report data are local demonstration values—not navigation, targeting, or validated performance data.

Role

Close-range counter-sUAS concept

Focused on a compact, soldier-carried, final-layer survivability role for small-UAS threats.

Priority

Low burden, rapid access

Being framed around practical carry, quick employment, and realistic user burden for ground personnel.

Stage

Pre-prototype development

Currently positioned for concept maturation, evidence planning, and partner engagement toward funded prototype work.

Need

Engineering and transition support

Future progress depends on fit-for-purpose engineering, fabrication, test, manufacturing, and strategic support.

Disclosure boundary

What is intentionally withheld.

The public website is not the place for protected design specifics. Those details should follow demonstrated need, legal protection, and disciplined partner fit.

Not public

Technical mechanism

Architecture, internal layout, packaging approach, and specific deployment logic remain outside the public repository.

Not public

Performance claims

Range, probability of effect, test results, materials, and dimensional data should only follow validated technical work.

Not public

Protected records

Drawings, calculations, concept notes, test concepts, and invention-supporting records should stay under appropriate controls.

Next step

Looking for the right technical and funding pathway.

TASG is interested in conversations that can move SNARE-1A from disciplined concept work to engineering feasibility and controlled prototype development.
