Elbit Systems Presents a Range of End-to-End Solutions for Terrain Dominance and Enhanced Situational Awareness at Eurosatory 2012

Elbit Systems is launching the following systems at the show:

• VWS Radar for Active Protection Systems: Provides soft/hard protection onboard light or heavy armored vehicles and stationary applications
• ELSAT 2100 Satellite on-the-move: Low profile rugged bi-directional vehicular antenna 
• XACT-NV32: Micro-compact night vision monocular for enhanced observation performance, head, helmet or weapon mounted

Elbit Systems is furthermore presenting a wide range of advanced systems and solutions designed for Terrain Dominance and enhance connectivity and interoperability. The company’s exhibition booth (D640) in the Israeli Pavilion (Hall 6) provides visitors with an excellent opportunity to experience a new and unique multi-media presentation, launchings of the company's cutting-edge solutions for individual soldiers and fighting vehicles, as well as additional advanced systems and solutions for Land and C4I, Electro-Optics, EW and Protection Systems, Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) and more.

A new live multimedia presentation demonstrates a variety of capabilities that position Elbit Systems as a global leader in achieving Terrain Dominance:

Terrain Dominance is the ability to control an area, relying primarily on advanced remote-controlled technologies and autonomous means,thus minimizing human presence and exposure. This unique concept relies on total intelligence coverage of the controlled area, efficient command and control measures (including sensors and fire elements), advanced networking infrastructure for connectivity among all echelons and "fires for effect" for engaging targets throughout the controlled area. Using a variety of cutting-edge solutions and systems, Elbit Systems demonstrates the achievement of Terrain Dominance via a new multi-media presentation at the Company booth.

• NEW: Clip-On COYOTE modular un-cooled sight easily integrates in front of any sniper's rifle telescope, weighing only 1.7 kg. 
• RATTLER G is dismounted hand-held, man-portable target designator/marker which enables warfighters to rapidly bring effective fire to bear on hostile targets. 
• Engager is an advanced covert remote reconnaissance and targeting system designed for the use of intelligence, infantry and Special Forces units.
• SAND are Smart All-Terrain Networked Detectors used to detect and track the movement of people and vehicles in any terrain.
• Long View CR is a versatile combined day/night system for very long-range observation and target acquisition. 
• CORAL-CR is a hand-held 3-5 µm FPA thermal imaging camera with continuous optical zoom and the addition of an integral digital compass, GPS receiver and a laser rangefinder. 
• Mini ATLAS is a precision electronic goniometer that interfaces with hand-held multi-functional sensors (MFS), such as the CORAL-CR. 
• Mini N/Seas is a compact, monocular night vision system that offers high resolution and a clear, bright image under adverse environmental conditions. 
• MARS is a family of versatile reflex sights based on the concept of combining a high-precision reflex sight with a single or dual-wavelength laser pointer (visible-red and/or IR).
