In a littoral environment where attacks can be difficult to detect, Elbit Systems’ extensive range of laser warning systems (LWS) provide sea vessels of all sizes with instant and accurate threat detection and identification capabilities. The LWS offers 360-degree threat coverage from laser-guided bombs and missiles, air and shore-based designators, rangefinders, beam riders and more, enhancing the ship’s survivability and improving its mission effectiveness.
