The modern battlefield is fraught with new challenges that must be met by the most advanced Spectrum Warfare
Solutions. The growing demand to operate and collect accurate intelligence in Highly Hostile Environments has led to the development of the Light SPEAR solution, a member of the SPEAR family.
Utilizing Elbit Systems EW and SIGINT – operational experience and cutting-edge technology, the SPEAR family
is based on a number of unified digital ELINT & ECM systems, each applicable to a set of operational requirements and platform constraints.
Light SPEAR – an ESM & ECM solution for airborne, ground and maritime platforms – is a compact EW system based on multiple DRFM channels, working in parallel and covering a wide spectrum. The system’s 3U VPX standard allows simple integration with an array of transmitters and platforms – and its low Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) consumption makes it an ideal EW system for multiple operational platforms.
