Product Name: Grenadier BRAT
Product Description
Grenadier Beyond Line-of-Sight Reporting and Tracking System
The Grenadier BRAT (GB) is a small transmitter carried by individuals
that communicates with satellites to let commanders follow movements of forces
and supplies in near-real time anywhere in the battlespace, even when they are
out of physical viewing range. The GB equips field commanders with minute
details to make fast-tempo operational decisions.
Capabilities
The phantom GB lets everyone know what is happening as it happens and where
it happens.
- Portable, compact (6" x 6" x 3"), lightweight (5 lb.)
transponder can be used in numerous stationary and mobile configurations,
including man-carried or mounted on military vehicles or aircraft
- Provides vital position data to aircraft, ships, ground forces and command
centers via secure encrypted communications
- Can detect and process short-duration burst signals in extremely harsh
weather and terrains
- Counteracts signal reflection and multi-path radiation in difficult radio
frequency (RF) areas
- Flexible and quick responding to rapidly changing threat environments
The rugged GB gives field commanders the ability to track and communicate
with friendly forces deep on the battlefield or behind enemy lines with
near-zero interception or detection:
- GB system includes a transponder, interactively user-controlled hand-held
terminal (HHT), small (3.5" ) UHF transmit antenna and Global
Positioning System (GPS) receiving antenna.
- Internal integrated circuit cards control the GB tracker unit, providing
GPS position location and secure communication.
- GB calculates position information via satellites and transmits this data,
along with unit identification and brevity code, via a covert output wave
signal.
With no ground-based line-of-sight limitations, the Grenadier Brat penetrates
time, space and distance to maximize warfighter safety and rescue.
