Liteye Systems and Tribalco Partnering to Provide AUDS Counter-UAS Defense Systems for U.S. Military
Liteye Systems and Tribalco have announced that they will partner to provide the U.S. military with multiple AUDS counter-UAS defense systems.
As a part of the partnership, Tribalco will help with infield installation and training support of Liteye’s AUDS systems, which are designed to detect, track, identify, and ultimately defeat opposing UAS, from both the air and the ground.
“Tribalco has been working with Liteye since the inception of AUDS, and through our partnership, we have worked diligently to provide certified AUDS installers and trainers to meet the immediate mission requirements of U.S. Forces,” says Zac Neumayr, Vice President, Tribalco, through a company press release.
The AUDS system has several features which make it capable of thwarting hostile UAS. It is equipped with state-of-the-art radar, precision thermal and daylight cameras, as well as advanced video tracking, and non-kinetic defeat capabilities.
Besides those features, the AUDS is also equipped with a smart sensor and effector package, which allows it to detect smaller UAS.
President of Liteye Systems Thomas Scott says, “as the legitimate use of unmanned vehicles becomes more prevalent in many industries, they become readily available for illicit use by our enemies. With the right technologies, we can provide coverage to our warfighters, while they conduct their mission of protecting against those who wish them harm.”
