Bharat Supply & Support Alliance (BSS) has introduced the TRIYAM-3D “Detect | Decide | Destroy” system, an AI-driven autonomous air defence solution designed to counter emerging drone and swarm threats. The system integrates detection, decision-making, and hard-kill engagement into a single compact architecture, marking a significant advancement in India’s indigenous counter-UAS capabilities.
TRIYAM-3D is built as a layered and automated platform that uses artificial intelligence to detect, classify, and engage aerial threats with minimal human involvement. This capability is crucial in modern combat environments where response times against low-flying and fast-moving drones are extremely limited.
At its core is a three-barrel Gatling gun configured for high-rate fire against close- to medium-range drone targets. Unlike missile-based systems, TRIYAM-3D focuses on cost-effective neutralization, particularly in swarm scenarios where missile use becomes impractical.
The system is designed to achieve a hit probability of over 90%, supported by AI-powered targeting and tracking algorithms. With an engagement range of up to 1,000 meters, it is optimized for point defence of critical infrastructure, forward operating bases, and high-value assets.
Weighing under 150 kg (excluding weapon and ammunition), the system features a compact, modular design that allows easy deployment across multiple platforms, including vehicles and fixed installations. Its turret provides full 360-degree rotation, enabling all-around protection against multi-directional drone attacks.
The “Detect | Decide | Destroy” framework ensures rapid sensor-to-shooter cycles, where onboard AI processes threat data, prioritizes targets, and initiates engagement autonomously. This is particularly vital in swarm defence scenarios, where multiple threats must be handled simultaneously.
Overall, TRIYAM-3D reflects a shift toward AI-enabled, gun-based hard-kill systems that complement traditional missile-based air defence, offering a scalable and cost-efficient solution against the growing use of drones.
