A-HAWK: Autonomous Wildlife Deterrence for Airports
A-HAWK is an autonomous, hawk-designed aerial system that protects airports from wildlife hazards.
Flying 60-90 minute missions, each unit covers 200+ acres of airside operations with minimal supervision.
Using natural predator behavior to deter pest birds, A-Hawk provides continuous coverage where static cannons, pyrotechnics, or labor-intensive patrols fail.
The Critical Gap
The A-Hawk Solution
85% of bird strikes occur during takeoff and landing operations. When radar detects birds in the departure path, current methods can't respond fast enough.
Detection-to-action gap: By the time teams are dispatched, birds have moved or aircraft have already departed.
Habituation: Pyrotechnics and acoustic devices lose effectiveness as birds adapt.
Limited scalability: Manual patrols are labor-intensive and difficult to coordinate across large networks.
Immediate on-demand dispatch: Wildlife teams launch within minutes when threats enter critical zones.
Scheduled preventive patrols: Autonomous coverage reduces
baseline wildlife pressure.
Natural predator effect: Hawk-like flight behavior prevents habituation over time.
Operational tool for wildlife teams:
Integrates into existing protocols, giving teams both preventive coverage and immediate response capability.
Dual-Mode Capability
Proactive: Scheduled Patrols
Reactive: On-Demand Response

-
Pre-programmed flight routes
-
Regular scheduled coverage
-
Minimal supervision required
-
Consistent deterrence across airside operations
Immediate dispatch to real-time threats:
-
Launch within minutes of detection
-
Direct to specific threat locations
-

Deployment Approach
Equipment Acquisition and Operation
Your airport acquires A-Hawk systems and integrates them into wildlife management teams. Available through direct purchase or flexible lease arrangements.
Includes comprehensive training, remote technical support, maintenance agreements, software updates, and annual on-site service visits.
Recommended Path Forward
Pilot program validates effectiveness at representative airport(s). Upon success, phased deployment across network based on operational priorities and budget.
