Blighter says the A422 Deployable Radar System is light enough to be transported in a vehicle and then carried to a vantage point.
UK radar and surveillance solutions developer Blighter Surveillance Systems, on 13 April, announced the launch of its A422 Deployable Radar System for drone detection and wide-area perimeter surveillance in remote and inaccessible areas.
The A422 medium-range air security military radar can detect and report airborne, ground and coastal targets up to 20km.
The company said the kit allows the A422 to be deployed on a modular mast designed with compact storage and ease of assembly in mind.
The A422 Deployable Radar System also includes a remotely deployed ruggedised laptop for displaying targets and allows the user to chart geographic alert zones allowing for unattended target monitoring.
