The US Army Engineers Research and Development Center (ERDC) has improved its Modular Protective Cover System (MPS-OHC) to better protect against drone attacks, which are increasingly targeting infrastructure, key assets, and critical resources in conflict zones.

"In April, MPS-OHC passed the verification tests of its improvements for use in the Indo-Pacific region. These upgrades — including stronger armor, a new armor layout, and easier installation on cargo containers — have demonstrated an almost perfect success rate in protecting against explosive threats.

"In addition, "the updated structure can withstand direct hits and is quickly assembled without the need for a concrete foundation, making it ideal for rapidly changing situations. The system is scalable to protect various assets and is currently in use, and contracts have been signed to send these systems to forward—based soldiers," the report says.
