ERA has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the German company Diehl Defence to cooperate in the field of passive surveillance systems and multi-sensor tracking capabilities for Diehl’s ground-based air defence systems (GBAD).
The MoU combines Diehl Defence GBAD systems, primarily IRIS-T SLM, with ERA’s Passive ESM Tracker. Access to another ERA product, ERIS Multi-Sensor Tracker, will allow for real-time data fusion of data for active and passive systems.
According to the MoU, both companies will assist each other in marketing efforts with multi-sensor-capable and passive-sensor-enabled GBAD systems. The availability of ERA components in the modular IRIS-T SLM architecture will provide customers with additional options for their individual configurations.
