The need to keep pace with rapidly
changing requirements is ever-present. Todays
network centric battlefield presents a host of new challenges
for our warfighters and defense manufacturers as well.
Textron Defense Systems has developed a network of sensors
and munitions that provides the soldier with the capability
to detect and engage threat vehicles and threat personnel
while keeping fellow soldiers and friendly forces out
of harms way and minimizing noncombatant casualties.
Our Scorpion is the only wide-area,
top-attack ground-based solution that delivers such
a high level of target effectiveness. It is the culmination
of work completed on a variety of programs and concepts
over the years at Textron Defense Systems.
Gathering, analyzing and distributing
operational tactical and strategic military information
is the job of our Tactical and Urban Unattended Ground
Sensors (T-UGS; U-UGS). Textron Defense Systems is the
sole UGS provider to the U.S. Armys Brigade Combat
Team Modernization program.
Both Scorpion and BCTM UGS leverage
the best of what has been developed for programs such
as the Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW), smart Skeet™,
and Spider, and is found in other IBS programs such
as Terrain Commander 2, AADS, and TRS-SA.
