Elbit Systems introduces MRS-2000L

The latest generation MRS-2000L is an all digital, ruggedized, transportable video receiving system for precise situational awareness picture build up of the battlefield, providing an "beyond-the next-hill" view of the enemy at standoff range, avoiding danger of exposure and revealing intentions. By bringing mission critical information to the front, the MRS-2000L enables tactical forces to make the most of real-time information, while assuring maximum accuracy and safety.

Used as a standalone, deployable UAV passive ground system or an add-on to a C4I (optional), the MRS-2000L receives, processes and displays real-time video imagery and telemetry data arriving from UAVs and generates an intuitive and correlated image-to-map display with real time UAV and payload information, for directed livery to the maneuvering forces.

Commanders, FACs and FOs in the field are thus able to make mission-critical decisions based on a complete and constantly updated situation awareness picture. Video recordings and still images can be stored in the hard disk for further off-line processing and debriefing purposes. Multiple users can access the MRS-2000L data base, through a LAN porter USB memory stick, in order to process these images.

The applications include:
• Artillery targeting and ranging
• Intelligence gathering
• Border surveillance
• C4I for ground forces
• Security for high-risk sites and sensitive facilities

The MRS-2000L system includes a tripod-mounted receiving antenna, video receiver, interfacing to a computer, and TFT handheld display unit for presenting video and telemetry data in virtually any type of format. A variety of proprietary image and data manipulation tools help the user convert data in to a graphical intelligence overlay on a digital map.
