Elbit wins Asia-Pacific ISTAR contract
Elbit Systems is to supply a tactical airborne intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR) solution to an unnamed customer in the Asia-Pacific region. The work will be performed under a three-year $50 million contract announced on 22 December.
The award will see the company upgrade existing Elbit Systems’ long-range electro-optical (EO) cameras and sensors currently deployed by the customer. This equipment will be supplemented with new SAR/GMTI reconnaissance systems.
The solution will enhance the customer’s intelligence and surveillance capabilities, providing the ability to perform advanced functions such as mission planning, battlefield management, terrain analysis and simulation modeling, both before and during intelligence-gathering operations.
Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, president and CEO, Elbit Systems, said: ‘We are proud of this contract award that attests to our ability to deliver world leading solutions which meet current and future intelligence needs.
‘By combining multiple sensors, advanced C4I and intelligence analysis systems, all into one integrated solution, we enable customers to carry out more effective and flexible ISTAR operations. There is a growing demand for this sort of solution, and we hope that this project, which marks a significant milestone for us, will lead to more orders from new and existing customers in the near future.’
