V-Protect provides a leading-edge radio frequency (RF) communication jamming system that brings seamless and adaptable protection across a wide range of relevant frequency bands and technologies. Integrated into standard or armoured SUVs, the system is quickly deployable and easily operated to provide convoy protection, among many other applications.

Designed and built in the UAE, V-Protect is fully self-contained, with the option of an external power source for “on-the-pause” operation and built-in shock absorbers to protect the system during high-speed or rough-terrain driving.
V-Protect is an advanced mobile active and reactive high-power jammer system aimed at helping block common terrestrial RF signal technologies as well as portable Satcom equipment, spanning radio, walkie-talkie, mobile and Wi-Fi frequencies. Boasting a counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and counter-drone measures, the user-friendly model is to be installed in a standard SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) that was showcased at IDEX 2021 and offers automatic operability by utilizing 16 channels and high emitting power amplifiers to provide support in enhancing protection range and combatting various threats across the frequency domain. A V-Protect-equipped vehicle is intended to be deployed at the front and at the back of a convoy, so ensuring the neutralization of any attempt to trigger IEDs by any kind of wave.
SIGN4L is part of the Electronic Warfare & Intelligence cluster at EDGE, an advanced technology group that ranks among the top 25 military suppliers in the world. The new V-Protect radio frequency (RF) communication jamming system was designed and developed by SIGN4L, a subdivision of EDGE to counter Remote controlled improvised Explosive Devices, roadside bombs, and other threats controlled by mobile phones or other radio signals.
Mounted on a vehicle, the V-Protect can be used to conduct counter-terrorism operations or to protect military convoys and VIPs' transport. The vehicle located at the front and a the end of the convoy can provide full 360° protection using the onboard V-Protect solution for radio signal jamming.
The V-Protect solution can be integrated into a mobile platform as civilian or combat vehicles with all the power and jamming system. It adopts the most effective and reliable Radio Frequency (RF) jamming technology using antennas mounted on the roof of the vehicle, offering full protection for the vehicle and the passenger against IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) and other road bombs.
The V-Protect mobile jamming solution designed and developed by SIGN4L is delivered with a power distribution, jamming combat system, and cooling system that can be used in all weather conditions and especially in desert climates.
