On February 24, 2022, Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine became one of the deadliest conflicts in Europe since World War II. This invasion not only became the bloodiest but also fundamentally changed the world, shifting traditional warfare into the third revolution in modern warfare, and 21st-century deterrence for the next 74 years (2099), or perhaps forever.
One of the major dangers is that this transformation of warfare also brought back the 1980s post-Cold War era major security concerns of threats of nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction (WMD) carrying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drone capabilities, and their delivery systems into the 21st century, the next generation of warfare. (Ref., and Credit: In 1997, the United States Air Force Air Power Studies "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Weapons of Mass Destruction: A Lethal Combination?" - JEFFREY N. RENEHAN, Major, USAF).
Protecting the United States and its allies from a rapidly evolving UAV/WMD weapons and delivery systems
In 1997,the US Air Force air power studies suggested that: "Identifying specific air defense systems that could protect the United States and its allies from attack by a UAV/WMD weapon system is beyond the scope of this study. However, what is important is that the threat that they pose is real, and the value of developing systems to defend against them should not be overlooked." (Ref: The US Air Force studies page 33).
Further stated: "The bottom line is that the United States may one day face an enemy that has obtained the capability to employ WMD on UAVs in battle. It is prudent to do everything in our power to prevent this from happening."(The US Air Force study, Chapter 6, Conclusion)
The military experts describe the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict as the world's first full-scale "drone warfare."
In April 2023, Dr. Caitlin Lee, who leads the Center for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Autonomy Studies at the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies in Arlington, Virginia, told Scientific American, “This is something we haven’t seen before,” “This is the first time we’re seeing drone-on-drone conflict.”“(Ref., Credit: Legion Canada's Military History Magazine)
In the 1980s, during the post-Cold War era, the G7 industrialized nations raised the issue of UAVs and drones carrying nuclear weapons and their delivery systems, but they were not given much attention
In the 1980s, during the post-Cold War era, seven industrialized nations, the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the U.K., and Canada raised significant security concerns and issues in regards to the UAVs and drones carrying nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction (WMD) - chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) weapons, and their delivery systems. (Ref: The US Air Force Airpower Study, page 2).
The US-Russia Cold War never ended in 1991; it was only a pause
In the 1990s, at the end of the Cold War era, evidence suggested that the US-Russia Cold War never ended; it just paused temporarily and continued beneath the surface even after the end of the post-Cold War era. Unfortunately, this temporary pause has already left unresolved security issues, numerous operational and capability gaps, and complex challenges that need to be addressed for 21st-century warfare.
The Air Force Air Power studies stated: "The United States may one day face an enemy that has obtained the capability to employ WMD on UAVs in battle. It is prudent to do everything in our power to prevent this from happening.” (Ref: and Credit:The US Air Force Air power study: page 42). The studies also indicate: “The potential exists for the proliferation of both UAVs and WMD to become widespread and thus a major security concern. There is no clear solution to this problem. (Ref: Abstract page v), It also indicates that WMD delivery systems often receive less attention than do the weapons themselves.”
AUVSI 2013 Washington, D.C., USA
Our mission began 16 years ago (in 2009), finding multi-layered defense solutions that can address the issues of 1980s Cold War-era UAVs and drones carrying weapons of mass destruction and their delivery systems. Most importantly, building the system-of-systems architecture warfare strategies that can help to deter another nuclear war.
To achieve these objectives, we have been researching, designing, inventing, and developing a novel "Air-based air defense system" concept, along with new war-fighting strategies referred to as the “THEBEE” system. This technological invention is known as an "EQQUERA Mother Hen and Parasite Chicks Air-Based Air Defense System" (EQQUERA MHPC-ABAD).
The "EQQUERA MHPC-ABAD" system is a new and improved air-based warfare platform concept designed for finding solutions to the long-overdue global security issues of the 1980s post-Cold War era, UAVs and drones carrying nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction (WMD), chemical, biological, and radiological (CBRN), and UAV and drone systems that deliver them. Particularly, to intercept and defeat threats that the existing "Iron Dome" and the proposed "Golden Dome" systems cannot defend against.
The EQQUERA “Air-based air defense system”
The EQQUERA “Air-based air defense system” is a family of systems-of-systems architecture platforms that comprises a Mother UAV (Mother hen) carrying a fleet of sub-UAVs (chicks), each sub-UAV carrying several mini-UAVs (Grand chicks), launch and recover in midair. These sub-UAVs and mini-UAVs (drones) are equipped with a system that enables them to surround the Mother UAV, communicate with each other, and operate as a single family.
The system also comprises integrated communication capabilities with existing manned, unmanned, space, and ground systems and other operational platforms, enabling it to dominate the airspace for full-scale combat and non-combat operations. The system is also designed with intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities that help to build air, land, sea, cyber, and space dominance.

On November 14, 1994, the United States President Bill Clinton signed Executive Order 12938, declaring a national emergency to address the danger of WMD-carrying UAVs and drone technology
On November 14, 1994, the United States President Bill Clinton signed Executive Order 12938, declaring a national emergency to address the "extraordinary threat" to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States posed by the proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons (weapons of mass destruction - WMD) and the means of delivering them.
The US Air Power Study further stated: "Weapons of mass destruction—nuclear, biological, and chemical—along with the systems that deliver them, pose a major threat to our security and that of our allies and other friendly nations. Thus, a key part of our strategy is to seek to stem the proliferation of such weapons and to develop an effective capability to deal with these threats.

On March 23, 1983, President Ronald Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) - Star Wars Program
On March 23, 1983, President Ronald Reagan announced a revolutionary plan, formally known as the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) or “Star Wars”, to protect the United States from nuclear attack. This research program was initiated mainly to develop a space-based shield using lasers, particle beams, and satellite-based sensors to protect the United States from nuclear ballistic missile attacks.
On January 27, 2025, the US President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order (EO) 14186, titled “The Iron Dome for America," known as the Golden Dome
On January 27, 2025, the US President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order (EO) 14186, titled “The Iron Dome for America”, later referred to as "Golden Dome for America." The "Golden Dome" is a proposed multi-layered, space-based, and ground-based missile defense system aimed at shielding the United States from advanced ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles, as well as drone swarms, including securing second-strike capabilities to defend against peer-level threats from adversaries and "rough" nations.
The "Golden Dome" missile defense initiative is a modern update of President Ronald Reagan's proposed missile defense system, also known as the 1983 "Strategic Defense Initiative" (SDI), or "Star Wars" program,( (Credit: The Soviet Union and the Strategic Defense Initiative) specifically focused on developing a space-based "next generation missile shield against the Soviet Union's nuclear missile attacks.
The 2025 European Union's multi-layered "drone wall" Defence Readiness Roadmap 2030
In September 2025, European Union leaders met to discuss the urgent need for the multi-layered "drone wall" defence system. Moreover, NATO and the European Union expressed their full support for this proposed system, following Russian airspace violations over Denmark, Poland, and Estonia. " "A ‘Drone Wall’ is needed for Europe to defend against a new threat" (Ref., credit: The Chatham House, by Tim Chattell). The priority for a multi-layered drone wall system is to shield from malicious UAVs and drones from space and air defense.
European Drone Wall and Eastern Flank Watch
On February 12, 2026, “Russia’s escalating hybrid attacks, including drone incursions, have prompted NATO’s Operation Eastern Sentry and the European Union’s (EU) plans for a European Drone Wall and Eastern Flank Watch.”. The system's key priority is to integrate all systems into a “single air display system,” which distinguishes malicious drones from legitimate ones.

The US counter-drone Joint Interagency Task Force - September 2025
On September 23, 2025, the US Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, announced (Ref: The US Army) that he had directed Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll to formally establish "a joint, interagency task force to counter hostile unmanned aerial systems, commonly referred to as drones".
Further stated "Drone dominance will do two things: Drive costs down and capabilities up. We will deliver tens of thousands of small drones to our force in 2026, and hundreds of thousands of them by 2027. I will soon be meeting with the military services to discuss transformational changes in warfighting doctrine. We need to outfit our combat units with unmanned systems at scale," Hegseth asserted.
Preparing for a wartime scenario: In the 1980s, during the post-Cold War era, industrialized nations recognized that the future warfare would be significantly more complex and lethal than World Wars I and II. Also, the use of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) weapons was highly possible.
Recognizing the dangers of these catastrophic events, we also developed an emergency preparedness and response plan in 2008. This plan focused specifically on building a safe and workable environment for law enforcement, emergency responders, military personnel, and healthcare workers to protect themselves, enabling them to save public lives. The Project is known as the "CBRNE Traigle Project".
The main focus of this "Project" is to build a "joint force" with law enforcement, other emergency responders, medical, and military personnel, and health care workers, to coordinate and work together in the event of a CBRNE catastrophe, to save themselves and save public lives.
We first introduced the "CBRN Triangle Project" to law enforcement personnel during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics in Canada. This distinctive identification system is now part of the safety equipment program for first responders and other emergency response personnel.
The project received government agency approvals (WorkSafeBC) following two public hearings. And also, this identification system was subsequently amended into the Canada Occupational Health and Safety Act, which stated, "distinguishing emergency medical assistant or in any other capacity, as well as law enforcement, defined in the Police Act." ( WorkSafeBC 8.24 High visibility apparel Act. Subsection (3) (b) (i, ii, iii) and (c).)
