Land-based air defence systems for use by ground forces
Air force bases, strategic assets, critical military infrastructures and other land-based mobile platforms rely on layered air defence systems for all-round protection against modern symmetric and asymmetric threats, including small, high-speed aerial targets.
Ground-based air defence systems and solutions designed for use by armed forces include:
- Stationary critical asset protection systems
- Modular multi-mission mobile air defence systems
- Military operations other than war (MOOTW) systems
- Command and control systems for air defence
- Fire control units for air defence systems
- Multi-spectrum sensor netting solutions
- Electro-optic target tracking sensors
- Ground support solutions for military forces
- Tactical and operative air defence networks
Need for sophisticated aerial defence systems
Armed forces need to deploy the most advanced short and very short-range air defence systems to protect their critical assets and troops from fast-approaching and more agile unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and precision-guided weapon systems.
Furthermore, modern self-propelled mobile defence systems protect vital stationary assets, including mechanised forces and convoys of the militaries.
