Furthermore, Indra stated that it received a contract to deploy additional equipment to support and strengthen the system’s capabilities.

The radars offered by the company are designed to operate in complex conflict scenarios and adverse environments with ‘strong disturbances’.

So far, they have been deployed in countries on five continents.

“The AIRDEF system features advanced functionalities to meet the requirement of armed forces worldwide.”

Separately, the Spanish firm announced that an Asian country has recently acquired its Anti-RPAS Multisensor System (ARMS) that can be integrated with anti-aircraft defence systems to improve the protection of military bases and installations.

Indra did not disclose the identity of the Asian customer.

The ARMS system combines different sensors to offer an enhanced ability to detect and identify threats.

Equipped with advanced countermeasures, the system can disrupt and saturate the drone’s communications, location and navigation systems.
