OVERVIEW
Ground forces need to detect enemy activity, track and designate targets, adjust long-range fire, and respond to indirect attacks such as artillery strikes. They also must monitor airspace to warn of hostile aircraft, helicopters, and drones. IAI ELTA’s ELM-2311 C-MMR fulfills these tasks with an AESA radar, power and cooling unit, operator consoles, and communications equipment, all mounted on a high-mobility vehicle for rapid deployment.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Multi-mission capability
- Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA technology)
- Advanced ECCM capabilities
- Mounts on a single high mobility vehicle for rapid deployment
- Requires only a crew of two and can be operated remotely
- High reliability and redundancy
Values & Benefits
Operating in C-Band, this artillery radar detects, tracks, and designates targets within its hemispheric view. Interfacing directly to command centers and effectors, it rapidly closes sensor-to-shooter loops to engage targets in its line of sight, even beyond 100 km.
As a counter rocket, mortar, and artillery radar (C-RAM), it designates the points of impact and origin of artillery rockets, shells, and mortars fired by enemy or friendly forces. It provides essential early warning, targeting, and fire direction for artillery counterfire.
Its ability to provide constant airspace coverage at low and medium altitudes over the battlespace also makes it an important asset for air and counter-UAS defence.
The system is operational and combat proven with the Israel defence Forces (IDF) and is constantly undergoing enhancements to meet the latest operational challenges.
