Elbit Systems Continues to Expand its Multi-Layered Naval Protection Capabilities to Counter Unmanned and Underwater Threats | Elbit Systems
Elbit Systems Ltd is advancing its multi-layered naval protection suite, responding to the increasing challenges posed by unmanned systems and underwater threats. As naval forces operate in ever more complex environments, the company offers a comprehensive protection approach that integrates electronic warfare, Counter-UxS technologies, kinetic defense, and underwater sensing capabilities into a cohesive naval protection suite.
This modular portfolio allows customers to choose between standalone capabilities or fully integrated multi-layered solutions, depending on specific operational needs.
Multi-Layered Naval Protection Portfolio
Key features of this portfolio encompass Aqua Marine naval electronic warfare solutions and the DESEAVER Mk-4 countermeasure dispensing system, designed to provide effective threat detection and electronic self-protection against radar-guided threats. This is further enhanced by the company’s GNSS jamming and spoofing solution, which enables non-kinetic disruption of navigation-dependent threats.
To counter the rising threats posed by unmanned systems, Elbit Systems incorporates counter-UAS capabilities that integrate the DAiR radar, electro-optical sensors, and various electronic warfare technologies to detect, track, and disrupt aerial adversaries. Notably, these capabilities are complemented by kinetic defense systems, including the 30mm highly accurate Naval Surface Gun and SkyBurst 30mm counter-UAS proximity fuse ammunition.
The portfolio further extends its protection capabilities beneath the surface with the TRAPS (Towed Reelable Active Passive Sonar) family of sonars, which support submarine and torpedo detection, as well as Hull Mounted Sonar (HMS) capabilities, thereby enhancing the overall naval protection framework.
The integration of these advanced capabilities equips naval forces with a scalable and comprehensive maritime protection suite, effectively addressing both current and future threats in the naval domain.
Elbit Systems’ Maritime Portfolio
Elbit Systems presents a vast array of advanced maritime defense solutions that are designed to meet the evolving operational requirements of naval forces across surface, subsurface, airborne, and coastal domains. Its offerings provide support for manned, unmanned, and autonomous operations across a range of environments. The maritime portfolio includes systems for naval combat management and C4I, electronic warfare, intelligence and self-protection, electro-optical solutions, naval communications, weapon systems and precision munitions, plus underwater warfare tools, among others. Leveraging extensive expertise in systems integration and multi-domain technologies, Elbit Systems aims to deliver tailored standalone and integrated capabilities adaptable to the operational contexts of modern naval forces and both new and existing platforms.
Elbit Systems is set to showcase its maritime defense solutions at Euronaval 2026 in Paris, France.
