Echodyne, a radar platform firm, has introduced a serious near-term enlargement in its superior radar manufacturing capability.
Echodyne’s new 86,350-square-foot facility in Washington state will present sufficient manufacturing and warehouse area to supply and ship greater than 30,000 radars per yr.
The corporate’s modular manufacturing strategy permits manufacturing capability to flex to match various demand throughout product strains in addition to seamlessly introducing new product strains and capabilities.
The funding displays Echodyne’s continued dedication to: enhancing safety and security as UxS grow to be ubiquitous on the battlefield and in society generally, staying forward of the accelerating demand within the US and in Allied international locations across the globe, and strengthening America’s protection industrial base.
Counter-UAS (C-UAS), past visible line of sight (BVLOS) operations for drone-as-first-responders (DFR), power safety, border safety, and on-the-move (OTM) are among the many purposes and capabilities driving accelerating demand for high-resolution radar surveillance of air and floor domains.
The corporate’s patented metamaterials electronically scanned array (MESA) know-how delivers unmatched knowledge constancy – pinpoint accuracy, monitor stability, AI-based classification of threats, and well-defined high-speed utility programming interfaces (APIs) for straightforward integration into techniques of techniques – in a compact, solid-state, commercially-exportable radar product.
