ELTA North America, a Maryland-based firm focused on Counter UAS solutions, fixed and mobile radars, ground vehicle protection systems, and airborne sensors, has participated in the Joint Counter-small unmanned aircraft system office (JCO) demonstration.
The demo consisted of two integrated systems that were enhanced beyond the prior operational capability.
Both the Modular Air Defense System Kit and the On-the-Move System were demonstrated, primarily highlighting the improved radar capabilities that provide autonomous detect, track, identification and classification prior to alerting an operator and recommending a defeat solution.
ELTA NA CEO, Joe Adams, said; “This was an incredibly difficult field demonstration.
“There were up to 50 unmanned aircraft of different types converging on a single target at one time. Our radars are cutting edge, there’s a reason why they were used by others in this JCO Demo.”
Adams added; “Although ELTA NA has the ability to provide a fully integrated solution, we believe it’s important to work across industry as partners for effective layered solutions to counter this dynamic threat environment.”
