HAIFA, Israel. An unnamed European nation chose Elbit Systems' Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) solution to modernize its 155mm howitzer battalions, according to a statement from the company.
This upgrade will integrate the company's C4ISR Artillery Suite, including the Torch-X Fires application and E-LynX Software Defined Radio (SDR) radios, into the artillery units, the company says.
The Torch-X Fires system is a multi-layered system that aims to enhance coordination across military forces, streamline planning and execution, and provide efficient sensor-to-shooter links, the statement reads. This technology, a part of Elbit Systems' C4ISR platform, focuses on facilitating precise and quick responses in various operational scenarios.
In conjunction with the Torch-X Fires, the E-LynX family of SDR radios will provide secure communication channels capable of handling voice, data, and video transmissions simultaneously, the company says.
