Whether it be a rural “eyes on” OP as part of a law enforcement operation, or a forward observer or sniper location in a defence environment, providing tactical early warning of intrusions close to the lying up point is key to providing the duty of care required (while at the same time reducing manpower required).
Cobham Surveillance Unattended Ground Sensor (UGS) systems provide that portable and tactical solution. These sensors may be enhanced by additional complementary techniques (e.g. imaging) to give confirmed threat identification. The wider intelligence picture can be provided to the “guy on the ground” through tactical and rugged situational awareness hardware and software solutions, integrated with the sensor suite.
