Applied Signal Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:APSG) (AST), a leading provider
of advanced signal processing solutions, today launched the first 3G
capable surveillance product that is specifically designed for
ground-based tactical operations and Intelligence Surveillance and
Reconnaissance (ISR) applications. The RAIDER, Model 680 has the ability
to support survey requirements for very high-speed data rates and voice
communications as well as process the full spectrum of communication
signals with 4 times the capacity over today’s
surveillance technologies.
“The emergence of 3G technology is a major
technological and market phenomenon with dynamic projected worldwide
growth. As a result, we anticipate the need to recapitalize existing
surveillance products within the next few years, and the RAIDER system
will be the first 3G capable surveillance product available,”
said Dr. Joseph Leonelli, Vice President of AST’s
Intelligence and Electronic Warfare business. “We
have made tremendous progress in validating the value and versatility of
our surveillance products for many ISR applications. We are confident
this new product will provide an effective signal surveillance
capability.”
Initial RAIDER product orders have already been secured. The company is
currently in discussions with other customers that have expressed a
strong interest in its RAIDER product as well as its ROGUE man-pack and
HYDRA airborne ISR systems.
AST has invested more than twenty years of research and development in
this high-capacity signal surveillance technology to offer a complete
line of ISR products for ground-fixed, expeditionary, and airborne
missions serving the national security market.
