The Mission:
Monitoring territorial waters on a round-the-clock basis while providing intelligence in time to take appropriate action is a major challenge to many nations. Ground-based and shipboard systems have a limited range against surface targets, while continuous use of aircraft is prohibitively expensive. Nations need an effective and affordable system that offers continuous, wide-area maritime surveillance and timely provision of target information.
Applications include
Early Intrusion Alert
Piracy and Smuggling Deterrence
Illegal Immigration Monitoring
Anti-Terrorism
Fishing Activity Surveillance
TCOM Sea Surveillance Systems are the solution.
Take to the Skies:
TCOM Sea surveillance systems use our medium-class tethered aerostats, equipped with an advanced maritime radar, thermal imaging and optical sensors, and communications payloads that detect and track maritime targets at distances of 60 nautical miles and beyond. A single sea surveillance system can cover thousands of square miles for weeks at a time at the lowest possible hourly cost for an airborne asset. The early detection and direct communications with air and sea assets affords the critical window of time to evaluate the situation, coordinate forces and engage, if required.
System In Action
Easily Meet Changing Requirements:
The versatility of the sea surveillance system makes it ideal for responding to requirements or threats that change rapidly. The system is fully transportable and can be easily relocated with no site preparation. Although fully mature, the system can be shaped to better meet the needs of the client. Additional capabilities such as passive surveillance and remote data linking can be included.
