Saab, Avioniq team for air/borne C2
Saab and Avioniq Awareness Sweden are teaming to market Avioniq’s Rattlesnake threat evaluation system integrated with Saab’s air and airborne command and control (C2) systems.
Saab's air and airborne C2 systems, including 9Air and 9Airborne, provide superior tactical capabilities and operational support, and control for all missions, air forces and operations. They provide situational awareness and communications that operators need to make the right choices and to act on them quickly and effectively.
Avioniq’s Rattlesnake is a real-time beyond-visual-range threat analysis engine that provides fighter controllers with the information to keep aircraft and pilots out of harm’s way.
Joachim Hammersland, head of combat systems and C4I solutions at Saab Surveillance, said: ‘Integrating Rattlesnake into the already strong 9Air/9Airborne offering gives Saab’s air C2 customers an edge not given to any fighter controller ever before.’
