Lockheed Martin Unveils Scalable Counter-Unmanned Aerial System Solution
As the threat of small Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) continues to evolve, Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) is demonstrating a new approach to counter these emerging threats. A recent field event marked the first in a planned series of innovative showcases featuring a scalable, layered defense system, designed to detect, track, identify and defeat UAS.
This modular, open-architecture solution combines combat-proven command and control with Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled detection and track software, low-cost sensors and an increasing array of effectors. The solution has been architected to facilitate rapid deployment and seamless integration with other systems.
“Integrating diverse sensors through a user-optimized command and control (C2) system helps simplify threat identification, and we have the complementary technology offerings to convert collected data into actionable information,” said Tyler Griffin, C-UAS director at Lockheed Martin. “Our open architecture approach offers an agile, layered defense solution that accelerates outcomes relative to this dynamic threat. This foundational demo highlights how we can deliver the mission today and sets the stage for what Lockheed Martin and our partners will deliver in weeks and months ahead.”
