At ILA 2024, HENSOLDT showcases its Twinvis passive radar and TRML-4D air defence radar, enhancing threat detection and platform security.
At the ILA 2024 in Berlin, HENSOLDT is set to present a comprehensive array of sensor technologies designed for reconnaissance, surveillance, and security. These advanced solutions aim to enhance the detection of threats and improve the protection of platforms and their users.
Twinvis Passive Radar System
One of the highlights at HENSOLDT’s booth is the Twinvis passive radar system. Unlike traditional radar systems that emit signals to detect objects, Twinvis leverages existing signals in the electromagnetic spectrum. This innovative approach allows the system to detect and track targets without revealing its own presence, making it highly effective for stealth operations.
Twinvis works by detecting multiple transmission sources from different locations and can link several sensors to create a sensor cluster. These clusters can cover areas where the sensors and transmitters are up to 100 kilometers apart. By using ambient signals, Twinvis can accurately map airspace and identify targets without relying on signals emitted by the targets themselves.
TRML-4D Air Defence Radar
HENSOLDT will also showcase the TRML-4D, a state-of-the-art ground-based radar system currently deployed for air defence in Ukraine. This system employs the latest Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar technology, which uses multiple digitally shaped beams to detect, track, and classify various air targets.
TRML-4D is designed for both short- and long-range surface-to-air detection and weapon designation. It excels in identifying small, fast, and low-flying objects such as cruise missiles, aircraft, helicopters, and drones. The radar can rapidly detect and track around 1,500 targets within a radius of up to 250 kilometers and at altitudes reaching 30 kilometers. This capability ensures comprehensive airspace surveillance and enhances defensive response times.
HENSOLDT’s sensors are integral to modern defense and security operations. The company's solutions are used across various applications, from military defense to civil surveillance. By providing precise and reliable data, these sensors help users maintain situational awareness and respond effectively to potential threats.
At the ILA 2024, visitors will have the opportunity to see firsthand how HENSOLDT's technologies can be integrated into existing systems to improve overall security and operational effectiveness. The company's commitment to innovation is evident in its ongoing development of sensor technologies that meet the evolving needs of defense and security professionals worldwide.
