The Düsseldorf-based technology group Rheinmetall and Anduril Industries have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) during Eurosatory in Paris to work together to design, develop, and produce new layered Counter small Unmanned Aerial System (C-sUAS) air defence systems. The scope of this collaboration is primarily to address European markets first.
“These C-sUAS systems will combine Rheinmetall’s command and control system, Skymaster, and high-power guns with Lattice an open, modular and scalable hardware components including Anduril’s Sentry Tower, Wisp sensors and Anvil, its autonomous interceptor,” according to a press statement. By combining the unique capabilities of both companies, an unmatched layered solution for C-sUAS will be offered. Overall, the MoU aims to bring together the complementary skills of these two leading companies….This cooperation will enable both companies to fulfill the strategic ambition to jointly develop and implement a systematic approach covering a wide sensor and effector mix. Ranging from diverse hard kill effectors to non-lethal effectors to gun missiles and state of the art active and passive detection sensors. The system will increase the survivability dramatically and allow new strategic and operational advantages.”
