Chess Dynamics has secured a £1.4 million order from a major weapon system prime to supply its Hawkeye EOSS systems for integration in mobile air defense units.
The equipment is designed to provide advanced electro-optical targeting of hostile air-borne threats. This order reflects a significant shift in global defense requirements, moving away from static installations toward agile, expeditionary sensor systems that can operate in rapidly changing environments.
The Hawkeye EOSS utilizes a combination of high-resolution optical and thermal imaging sensors to deliver long-range detection, identification, and tracking. These capabilities are supported by a high-precision positioner designed for demanding operational conditions.
This system also integrates Chess Dynamics’ proprietary DEFT AI-enhanced tracking algorithms, ensuring robust capture and track maintenance of hostile targets.
Mark Byfield, Business Development Director at Chess, commented, “We are pleased to be part of a very effective, proven high performance system by working closely with our prime customer. As mobile air defence platforms become ever more important, this contract underlines the need for such systems to incorporate sensor capability that is able to keep pace with shifting threats.”
This latest order strengthens the position of Chess Dynamics in the mobile air defense domain. It addresses an increasing requirement for sensor systems that offer clarity, speed, and resilience for modern military operations.
