The French defence procurement agency DGA has awarded Sagem and its Swedish partner Exensor the contract for the Système d'Acquisition d'Information et de Renseignement (SAIDRe) programme.
The SAIDRe programme contract, which was announced on 14 April, is for an intelligence system that is based on remote battlefield sensors for deployment by special forces and army intelligence units. The system surveys targets, gathers indications, acquires images and sends data in real time to command and control centres using remote sensors.
Sagem will be the prime contractor and systems integrator for the programme, working with Exensor Technology, which will provide the remote sensors. Exensor's solutions will combine seismic, acoustic and infrared technologies with day/night imagers.
The first prototypes are due to be delivered in early 2016. Following initial developments, field tests will be performed under operational conditions. The initial batch will have 70 systems, and additional batches may be ordered under options.
