Elbit Systems Ltd. has been awarded a contract worth approximately $60 million to supply its multi-layered Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) to a NATO European country — the contract will be performed over a period of three years.
As part of the contract, Elbit Systems will deliver its ReDrone™ modular Counter-UAS (c-UAS) solution. The ReDrone Solution comprises Elbit Systems’ advanced DAiR Radar, SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) sensors, EW (Electronic Warfare) counter measures and EO (Electro-Optical) day/night payload, which provide an enhanced integrated aerial picture along with high-end electronic attack capabilities.
The ReDrone modular, multi-sensor, and multi-mission system is part of Elbit’s advanced EW, Radars, and SIGINT portfolio. It provides functionalities beyond common active and passive sensors, enabling the rapid detection and location of multiple drones simultaneously across various communication channels, within the protected area.
The system can detect, identify, locate, track and neutralize hostile UAS, during day and night, in both urban and rural environments and under various weather conditions. The solution includes both stationary and mobile configurations, which can be installed on vehicular platforms to enhance operational flexibility. Additionally, it includes advanced C4I (Command and Control) capabilities for comprehensive mission management.
Oren Sabag, General Manager of Elbit Systems ISTAR & EW, said, “This contract, coming amid the rising threat of unmanned aerial systems, follows a series of contracts awarded to us in the CUAS field. We are proud that another NATO member country has chosen our solution, further demonstrating the robustness and effectiveness of our system, built on our advanced capabilities in EW, SIGINT, radar, and EO technologies.”
