Elbit Systems develops digitised battlefield C4I

Issue No. 22 | November 16-30, 2014Photo(s): By Elbit Systems

Elbit Systems has developed expertise in digitised battlefield command, control, communication, computer and intelligence (C4I) by applying advanced technologies in combination with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and software packages.

Elbit employs a tactical building-block approach to link various applications and levels of command implementing a net-centric concept. Configurations comprise tactical computers, digital maps, message handling systems, border surveillance, advanced communication controllers and modems as well as various components developed for customer-specific needs. Elbit provides software infrastructure and applications for mobile and airborne platforms, for the individual soldier, and for headquarters command and control (C2) applications. Based on these core technology building blocks, it offers comprehensive integrated solutions of C4I for land forces at all levels. The systems process, manage and present massive amounts of data arriving from various sources into a user-friendly format. It also provides a full range of simulators and customisable training programmes.

Command, Control and Computers

Elbit Systems’ advanced networked battle management systems deliver improved coordination and planning and rapid closure of the sensor-to-shooter loop, providing all branches of the fighting force with enhanced situational awareness and mission-critical information. Advanced C4ISR solutions provide end-to-end, innovative and integrated systems to all operational levels. Autonomous C4I arrays that improve national situation awareness enable full connectivity through highly advanced communications systems and incorporate a variety of integrated sensor and weapon systems.

Digital Army Programme (DAP)

DAP implements advanced combat concepts that increase operational effectiveness and connectivity throughout all echelons in all combat situations under a unified operational doctrine.

TORC2H: All-in-one C4I System

Covers all army branches and echelons, enabling universal situational awareness as well as in-depth collaborative mission planning and management based on real-time information and an always-updated common operational picture. TORC2H is the only C4I solution to be fully deployed and operational in a major military organisation, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF).

DTAC2: Mobile Embedded C2 Application for Tactical Dismounted Units

The DTAC2 system enables all-terrain operability and range – based on dynamic network connectivity and integrated battle command capabilities – achieving accurate and rapid reaction within the task force mission assignment. It transforms the dismounted commander/soldier to a force-multiplier within the task force operation and increases their operational effectiveness within the tactical force network warfare.

Dominator: Infantry Combat Solution

An integrated infantry combat system enabling full situational awareness from the infantry battalion level down to the individual soldier. Dominator dramatically shortens the sensor-to-shooter loop, enhancing the combat effectiveness of the dismounted soldier.

WinBMS (Weapon-Integrated BMS): Networked Integrated Battle Management Solution

Enhancing the connectivity and coordination of the tactical level manoeuvring forces, the WinBMS increases their lethality and survivability. Based on integrated sensor and weapon systems, WinBMS provides a full-scale solution both at the task force level and within the armoured combat platform, thereby increasing the combat effectiveness of the combined force within the dynamic battlefield.

Combat NG: Fully-integrated Modular Artillery Solution

Incorporates C4I systems and platform suite upgrades to establish an autonomous artillery array, achieving an effective fire support process.

Air Defence Command and Control Solution: Integrated Air Defence C4I Solutions in Pursuit of Aerial Sovereignty

A comprehensive air defence (AD) solution that provides a host of integrated tools and capabilities for real-time air space surveillance, engagement and interception control, air command and control, early warning systems and mission management. This AD solution incorporates radar surveillance arrays, ground AD units and ground air command and control centres, achieving air space sovereignty within interior and national aerial zones.

Border Defence Solution: Full-scale Border Security

The system enables complete real-time connectivity among the entire border defence array and allows optimum coordination of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) efforts throughout the national territory operational zones and along the country borders.

General HQ Solution: Comprehensive C4I Solution for All Levels of the Command Chain

This provides the joint General Staff with an integrated C4I solution that supports strategic planning and joint command and control at all operational levels.

Crisis Management Solution: Strategic Organisational Management Solution for Disaster/Emergency Preparedness

It equips emergency centres with an integrated C4I solution to improve national crisis preparedness and enhance the control and management of routine, crisis and emergency situations.

FRONTS Solution: Customised C4I Solution for Mission-critical Operations

It provides first-responders and rescue units with an integrated C4I suite in support of the control and monitoring of both routine and rescue activities.
