BAE Systems Anti Threat System (BATS) łączy funkcje wykrywania, podejmowania decyzji i rażenia w ramach jednolitego podejścia, pomagając w wykrywaniu, śledzeniu i neutralizacji bezzałogowych zagrożeń. Dzięki fuzji danych z wielu sensorów w wiarygodny, wspólny obraz sytuacji operacyjnej, BATS wspiera szybsze i bardziej świadome podejmowanie decyzji oraz umożliwia realizację zadań obrony warstwowej przy użyciu zintegrowanych środków typu soft-kill i hard-kill. Jego modułowa i skalowalna architektura pozwala na adaptację do zmieniających się zagrożeń oraz wymogów operacyjnych, zarówno w środowisku wojskowym, jak i cywilnym.

Key milestone: ✅
We have completed the Critical Design Review for the $1.2 billion U.S. Space Force Resilient Missile Warning & Tracking – Medium Earth Orbit Epoch 2 program.
The program will provide resilient, space-based missile warning and tracking of ballistic missiles and advanced threats, such as hypersonic glide vehicles, in support of the Space Force’s mission.
Congrats to all involved with achieving this key milestone on schedule - only 14 months after the program was awarded!
