Anti-terrorist protection: Bull enters to the Middle East market with its Shadow range of intelligent signal jamming devices to counter RCIEDs.
We talk about technologies and two major contracts in the Middle East.
Led by Bull Shadow range of intelligent signal jammers, designed for
anti-terrorist protection, this solution aims to modernize and reinforce local
armed forces.
For those who unfamiliar, the Shadow system for neutralizing
radio-controlled improvised explosive devices (RCIEDs) is based on Bull's
intelligent reactive signal
jamming technology.
This means:
·
The Shadow range of products
ensures the protection of convoys and extended areas on the ground, as well as
providing remote jamming.
·
Shadow addresses homeland
security needs.
·
The range also includes a lightweight,
portable signal jammer, Raid Shadow, aimed at Special Forces, mine clearance
missions and the protection of small-scale areas such as checkpoints.
·
Integrated into vehicles,
Shadow jammers protect passengers and critical zones against RCIEDs. Shadow
also enables enemy communications to be identified and can be used to control
radio communications.
