The Finnish Border Guard (Rajavartiolaitos) has initiated a pilot collaboration with Elisa Oyj and Sensofusion Oy for a drone detection system in Southeastern Finland. This pilot aims to enhance border security by improving the detection abilities of the Finnish Border Guard for drones in a critical focus area. The system utilizes Sensofusion's identification technology and Elisa's digital infrastructure. The pilot will run until 30 September 2026 and is fully funded separately by each party during the trial. The sensor network feeds drone detection data to the Border Guard for surveillance operations, allowing the development of operational models and expertise before full system deployment. The Border Guard is also working with other authorities to build a national drone detection and countermeasure capability using multiple technologies. The cooperation is supported by senior officials from all involved organizations and emphasizes the rapid response capabilities of Finnish industry to security needs.
