A cutting-edge Ford F-250 test vehicle is being used to evaluate advanced security technology, combining an automated breaching system with a counter-drone turret to assess potential defense solutions for commercial trucks. The integration of Forterra’s AutoDrive and Edda’s turret aims to address evolving threats in work-truck operations. Engineers are testing how these systems could work together to enhance protection in high-risk environments. The project highlights growing interest in autonomous and counter-drone capabilities for heavy-duty vehicles.
