FEATURED DEFENCE PROJECTS

C4I Joint Architecture

A modular, scalable command-and-control foundation enabling interoperability across land and air mission systems, the digital backbone of next-generation joint operations.

Land & Air Defence Command and Control Systems

Integrated mission-management and situational-awareness platforms connecting radar, sensor, and communication networks across land and air units.
Our solutions enable real-time operational coordination, decision support, and mission planning through a unified C4I backbone ensuring faster response, interoperability, and superior situational awareness in complex battle environments.

Electronic Warfare (EWC3S & Mobile EW Systems)

End-to-end software design and integration for electronic attack, defence, and coordination systems reinforcing spectrum dominance and operational continuity.

Counter-UAS & AI-Enabled Detection

Multi-sensor Counter-UAS platform integrating radar, EO, acoustic, and RF modules with central C2 control. Award-winning computer-vision AI distinguishes drones from birds in real time ranked #1 globally for three consecutive years in the Drone-vs-Bird Detection Challenge.

ERTMS Juridical Recording Unit (JRU)

Safety-critical data logging software for high-speed rail systems, ensuring traceability and compliance with EN 50126/50128 standards.
