Cambridge, UK, April 28, 2022 – Blighter Surveillance Systems (‘Blighter’, www.blighter.com) the British designer and manufacturer of electronic-scanning military radars and surveillance solutions, has been awarded a contract to supply vehicle-mounted tactical radars on an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) for a Northern European NATO customer for border security applications.

For this programme, Blighter will be supplying its B422 180-degree ground surveillance e-scanning radar in a vehicle-mounted configuration to be fitted to a six-wheeled UGV, driven by the need for flexible and rapidly-deployable threat detection for perimeter and border security. The radars will be augmented by Electro-Optical systems provided by a systems integrator for the programme to provide the UGV with a full-spectrum approach to threat detection.

At this stage, the full complement of systems will be delivered and installed by the latter half of 2022. The B400 series of tactical radars are designed to provide long-range ground surveillance to detect moving vehicles and individuals up to 32 km from a fixed, mobile or portable position. The B400 series benefits from a very wide vertical elevation beam, allowing for simultaneous detection of targets both nearby and at great distance, with an unsurpassed level of ground clutter cancellation resulting in a low false alarm rate.

This is not the first instance of Blighter providing its B400 tactical radars to mobile platforms. Last year the company was selected to supply advanced integrated target acquisition radars to a fleet of armoured fighting vehicles.

Blighter radars are deployed in more than 35 countries across the world, delivering round-the-clock all-weather security protection along borders, for coastal facilities, military bases and critical national infrastructure. 

Blighter CEO Angus Hone said:

“We are pleased to have been awarded this contract, which exemplifies our expertise in providing integrated threat detection for armoured vehicles. This contract once again demonstrates our status as a trusted supplier of best-in-class e-scanning tactical radars to increase safety and security, not only in Europe, but throughout the world.”

Cambridge, UK, May 11, 2021 – Blighter Surveillance Systems (‘Blighter’, www.blighter.com), the British designer and manufacturer of electronic-scanning radars and surveillance solutions, has cemented its position in South Korea by affirming its partnership with South Korean integration and certification firm Dt&C (www.dtnc.co.kr) who have recently established their Anti-Drone Business Unit.

Dt&C is a South Korean electronics and product testing and certification company based near Yongin in Gyeonggi Province. Dt&C has experience across the telecommunications, automotive, defence and space exploration sectors, with a long-standing relationship with the Korean Armed Forces, and have recently established an Anti-Drone Business Unit to help focus Blighter’s activities in Korea. Blighter appointed Dt&C in 2019 to help develop the growing Counter-UAS (C-UAS) market in South Korea, and Dt&C were quick to recognise the opportunities on offer by promoting Blighter C-UAS capabilities.

With an impressive background in RF analysis and extensive test facilities, a number of industry experts have now been appointed by Dt&C to help meet the challenges of growing Blighter’s share of the C-UAS market in Korea and overseas by collaboration with some of Korea’s major military suppliers. During the ongoing partnership, Blighter and Dt&C have participated alongside several other competitors in seven C-UAS tests and evaluations conducted by three separate government agencies. These resulted in Blighter being the only radar provider to be able to detect and track small UAVs at a distance of over 4 km.

Major General (Ret.) Yeoung-Soo Hwang, adviser of Dt&C said:

“Dt&C participated in the pilot project of integrated drone defence systems…we were very pleased that it was an opportunity to confirm the superiority of Blighter’s radar in the field and make it recognised by major domestic personnel.”

The tests proved that Blighter radars are best-in-class in the detection of small commercial UAVs and that Blighter and Dt&C’s partnership will allow them to build on Blighter’s existing contribution to South Korea’s national security, evidenced by their provision of surveillance systems for the South Korean government to monitor the De-Militarized Zone (‘DMZ’).

According to the Chairman of Dt&C, Charlie Park, “The motivation for an anti-drone radar partnership with Blighter is because we have sufficient human resources, based on the technology and experience that Dt&C has accumulated, to build a Korean anti-drone system.”

Blighter CEO Angus Hone remarked:

“The successful tests and the combined aspirations of our two companies demonstrate our commitment to this partnership and to the security of the Republic of Korea as a whole. The growing threat of hostile drone usage shows that there is a market calling out for our of expertise and we are excited to collaborate closely with Dt&C to establish ourselves as leaders in the field of counter-drone technology.”
