Insights into the region

Counter-UAV solutions

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones, have rapidly evolved from tools of convenience into potent instruments of disruption and conflict. In the Middle East, the rise in UAV threats poses significant risks to national security, critical infrastructure, and civilian safety. Whether used for surveillance, smuggling, or direct attacks, drones represent a new frontier of asymmetric warfare that requires advanced and adaptive countermeasures.

Ground-Based Air Defence (GBAD)

In a region defined by its strategic importance and intricate security challenges, the Middle East faces persistent threats from modern aerial technologies such as drones, missiles, and advanced fighter aircraft. Ground-based air defence systems are critical for maintaining the sovereignty and safety of nations, ensuring protection for civilian populations, infrastructure, and military assets alike.

Securing the sea domain

The sea has always been a vital lifeline for nations in the Middle East, serving as a conduit for global trade, energy exports, and regional connectivity. However, maritime security in the region is increasingly challenged by threats such as piracy, smuggling, unauthorized incursions, and sophisticated naval warfare tactics. To safeguard these waters, nations require cutting-edge technologies that provide comprehensive situational awareness and robust defence capabilities.
