Babcock nears first customer for Nomad AI translation tool
Nomad can provide militaries with real-time intelligence, saving critical time on the battlefield.
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.

Taurus operates alongside the Israel Defense Forces’ Orion system which supports mission management across tens of thousands of manoeuvring forces, from squad leaders to battalion commanders.
The plan for the new displays follows fresh investment in Kopin’s European facilities by Theon and an order for head-up displays in fielded aircraft, with funding from the US Department of Defense.
Persistent Systems received its largest ever single order for its MPU5 devices and other systems earlier this month and has already delivered the 50 units to the US Army’s 4th Infantry Division.
Turkey has joined the family of countries attempting to establish a multilayered air defence system with government approval in August 2024 for the effort landed by Aselsan. Dubbed Steel Dome, the programme joins Israel’s Iron Dome, the US Golden Dome, India’s Mission Sudarshan Chakra and South Korea’s low-altitude missile defence system.
MARSS’ NiDAR system has been deployed using sensors from static platforms to provide detection and protection for static sights, such as critical infrastructure, ports and military bases.
