What's next for the Pentagon after the Replicator programme?
Although the Replicator initiative has made several accomplishments, there are still multiple gaps to plug across the US Department of Defense (DoD) and its services.
Echodyne’s EchoGuard security radar has been selected by Black Sage Technologies for mid-range C-UAS security, the company announced on 6 March.
The EchoGuard radar provides UAS detection, tracking, classification and identification in multi-sensor arrays.
When integrated into multi-sensor arrays, the radar reliably cues other sensors for rapid object identification and potential mitigation.
Echodyne’s MESA technology creates a small ESA radar with high-fidelity data output for security integrators that require advanced range, detection and tracking accuracy, and consistent sensor performance. The company’s patented technology delivers a high-performance radar in a compact, solid-state format for security integrators delivering multi-sensor ground and airspace security solutions for industry, government and defence.Dave Romero, managing partner of Black Sage, said: ‘Black Sage integrates best-of-breed technologies into multi-sensor C-UAS solutions, which we uniquely configure for each deployment. Echodyne radars are the market leader for mid-range requirements and provide consistent, high quality sUAS detection and tracking.’
