Demonstrations of the innovative turnkey survey platform will take place during the coming months across the UK, USA and Canada.

With clutter suppression and enhanced target detection capabilities, the new system is particularly suited for long-range coastal surveillance applications. When combined with highefficiency antennae such as those with a high gain and/or circularly polarised capability, it can provide the performance peaks necessary for critical detection operations.
