FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Elbit Systems of
America will showcase a unique portfolio of ground combat solutions
and electro-optics & precision targeting systems at the 2018
Modern Day Marine Exposition. The event will take place
Sept. 25-27 at Marine Corps Base
Quantico in Virginia. Elbit
Systems of America will be featured inside Tent A, in booth
1211.
"Our company is dedicated to providing the very best
capabilities to the U.S. Marine Corps," said Raanan Horowitz, president and CEO of Elbit
Systems of America. "Our combat-proven solutions help to ensure
mission success, while providing a greater level of protection to
the warfighter."
"Elbit Systems of America works hard to deliver advanced
technologies to our Marines through rapid production," said
Amela Wilson, vice president for
Sensor and Fire Control Solutions at the company. "To date, we've
delivered more than 500 mission-ready Common Laser Range
Finder-Integrated Capability (CLRF-IC) units and we're poised to
handle capacity increases when required by the USMC."
Elbit Systems of America leverages its 25 years of experience to
offer solutions that are precise and highly-reliable, so troops can
protect and save lives. Examples of the company's offerings that
benefit the USMC include:
Precision range finding and targeting solutions that are
lightweight, rugged and accurate.
- CLRF-IC provides 24-hour observation and precise target
location and range capabilities. CLRF-IC locates targets in a
variety of conditions, including magnetically disturbed
environments, areas with overhead clutter and in GPS-denied
situations. This solution allows troops to acquire targets without
breaking cover from their concealed fighting positions.
Unmanned aerial solutions that are capable of long-range,
precise tactical strikes.
- Recognizing that loitering munitions are a priority for the
multi-domain battlefield, Elbit Systems of America aims to provide
solutions that serve as both ISR and strike capabilities. . The
Skystriker is just such a solution. This loitering munition is
cost-effective, while it improves performance and survivability for
troops in the field. The fully autonomous UAS can locate, acquire
and strike, all while offering a minimal acoustic signature.
- Troops can benefit from Elbit Systems of America's small to
medium-sized UAS. Models range in payload size and duration to fit
the mission, providing an edge to the modern warfighter.
Ground combat vehicle modernization to benefit Marines in
training and in the battlefield.
- Our company's IronVision solution helps protect drivers and
combat vehicle crews by providing 360-degree situational awareness,
with zero latency. This helmet-mounted system allows crews to see
outside their vehicle, with a closed hatch in day or night
conditions.
- Elbit Systems of America keeps ground combat vehicles in the
fight through sustainment solutions and upgrades to various control
devices on the USMC M1A1 tank, associated simulators and trainers
and more.
