Columbia, Maryland – May 16, 2024 – TCOM, a leading provider of multi-domain Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) solutions, will be exhibiting its industry-leading persistent awareness systems at the upcoming Border Expo, taking place May 21-23 in El Paso, Texas.
Focus on Addressing USBP Challenges
TCOM recognizes the ongoing challenges the USBP faces in securing the vast U.S. border. Border Expo presents a valuable opportunity to directly address these challenges by showcasing advancements in TCOM’s aerostat, high-altitude, and drone technology.
Key Innovations on Display:
- Semi-autonomous Operations: TCOM’s focus on automation reduces the number of aerostat operators, leading to significant cost savings for the USBP.
- Enhanced Capabilities: The introduction of 22-meter (72-foot) aerostats provides greater mission flexibility through increased Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) capacity, improved altitude to overcome terrain obstacles, and the ability to withstand higher wind speeds for superior availability.
- Unprecedented Uptime: Advanced weather integration from the Versar suite empowers flight directors with real-time data, leading to increased operational availability of the aerostats.
- Counter-UAS Integration: TCOM is actively evaluating new sensor technologies to detect and defeat both Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and smaller sUAS threats. This expands the mission capabilities of Tethered Aerostat Systems (TAS) beyond traditional imagery collection.
Engaging in Strategic Dialogue
Beyond product demonstrations, TCOM will participate in lectures and roundtable discussions alongside USBP leadership. These sessions will delve into current technology gaps, evolving mission requirements, and the tools envisioned for future border security operations.By fostering open communication with the USBP, TCOM seeks to align its innovative aerostat solutions with the specific needs of those securing our borders.
