- Tool-less mount and installation: Allows for swift deployment and rapid disassembly in under ten minutes without the need for specialised training;
- Portable battery solution: Ensures uninterrupted operation in remote or temporary settings, enhancing mobility, increasing deployment options and reducing dependency on fixed power sources.
Operator benefits include:
- Real-time threat intelligence: The integration of AI ensures receipt of real-time intelligence, enabling rapid decision-making and response;
- Adaptability to wide-area operations: An integrated sensor and effector solution for wide-area operations, allowing easy deployment in multiple environments;
- Efficient, flexible deployment: A streamlined deployment process minimises downtime and maximises system availability for mission-critical tasks.
