Elsight Ltd and Robotican have formed a partnership for optimized connectivity in BVLOS counter UAS military and defense missions.
Robotican is a leading autonomous robotics and drone innovator, while Elsight is a recognized industry leader in uncrewed system connectivity solutions.
The overall goal of many CUAS missions is to intercept without causing any inadvertent damage, while ensuring secure apprehension of the hostile drone. As a result, military and defense organizations around the globe have added counter UAS systems to their arsenals with the aim of identifying and disrupting adversarial drones.
A leading example is Robotican’s Goshawk, a fully autonomous drone which flawlessly executes interception missions by seamlessly snaring adversary drones mid-flight (Surgical Discreet C-UAS mitigation). Its autonomous repertoire is comprised of in-flight target detection, precise tracking, secure locking, target pursuit and flawless capture of a hostile system.
Robotican’s CEO Hagai Balashi, said; “Even in regions with minimal signal coverage Elsight’s Halo can provide a quick and consistent connection between the Goshawk aircraft and its control station.
“Elsight’s Halo system delivers the most solid LTE link that Robotican had ever experienced, in addition to high-quality data streaming. In testing, the Halo performed seamless handover of the aircraft control from one pilot to another, thereby reducing the risk of C2 failure significantly.”
“Elsight is proud to partner with Robotican in its dedication to maintaining safe skies with its Goshawk system, an exceptional example of hostile drone interception capabilities,” said Yoav Amitai, Elsight’s CEO. “In our work together, we have significantly accelerated the ‘detect, react, and eliminate’ process by enhanced situational awareness.”
