The Long Range Counter UAS Base Protection System, using the Bandito Precision Guided Loitering Munition (PGLM), represents the next generation of defensive capabilities against hostile UAS. Designed to protect critical infrastructure and forward operating bases, the system provides comprehensive long-range detection, tracking, and low-cost neutralization of hostile UAS targets.
Utilizing advanced sensor fusion technology, the system can identify potential threats (Combat ID) at extended ranges, allowing for adequate decision time and response. The system is designed to operate in all environmental conditions and integrates to existing command and control (C2) networks.
NOTE: Performance specifications were formally tested and validated at six Black Dart Counter UAS exercises and are based on integration to specific Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radars. Contact GT Aeronautics for detailed operational capabilities and integration options.
