JAMMERS LOCALISER LICORNE C2 is a compact and lightweight C2 (command and RADAR control) that provides a full range of information to decision LIGHT VEHICLE or SET OF BOXES makers. LICORNE C2 provides a situational awareness on a wider REMOTE threat spectrum 24/7, with the capability to integrate into a global CAMERA air defence through tactical data link (L16, JRE or national protocol). MISTRAL LAUNCHERS IRST Adapted to manage a simultaneous variety, LICORNE is designed L16 JREAP to simultaneously manage various types of sensors like radar, ELECTRO OPTICAL SENSORS electro-optical and EW, and various types of soft kill (ie. jammer) and hard kill effectors (ie. missiles, lasers etc). SENSOR TO SHOOTER COORDINATION
The LICORNE inherits more than 20 years of MBDA experience in
Ground Based Air Defence systems (GBAD C²), with more than 70 GBAD systems sold over the world.
