FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Elbit Systems
of America, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Elbit Systems Ltd.
(NASDAQ:ESLT) introduces at the 2009 AUSA Annual Meeting and
Exposition, IRCS which breaks down the barriers between your
existing radio systems to let your teams talk. (Logo:
http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080408/300488 ) IRCS is an
advanced military communication system that enables direct voice
and data communications among command posts and front-line echelons
via radios and communications devices of various kinds -- VHF, HF,
Multi-Channel Radios, LAN, WAN, PABX, Satellite and Cellular
networks. The system allows soldiers at all levels, from top
command to the individual soldier in the field, to directly
communicate with anyone else in the military network. IRCS delivers
today on the promise of radio interoperability without having to
purchase new radios. It offers improved operational coordination
and command and control, providing commanders and decision makers
the power of communicating directly with others across normal
technology barriers. "IRCS represents the first of several of a new
class of C4I System Solutions," said Jim English, Vice President
C4I Solutions, Elbit Systems of America. "When talking with our
military customers about some of the biggest tactical challenges
confronting them today, interoperability is the first thing we
hear. IRCS removes that barrier and provides the war fighter with
the ability to contact any other user on their radio, even using a
cell phone to do it. It is not a development item. It is already
deployed in several places around the world and has proven its
capabilities. We are very excited about introducing this to U.S.
forces here at AUSA and hearing about the new freedoms this
solution will provide to our battlefield commanders immediately."
