WASHINGTON — Teledyne FLIR Defense has unveiled a new small counter-unmanned aerial system radar to aid forces in detection and tracking threats, the company announced today.

Dubbed Ranger R10-3DX, the CUAS was designed to support a raft of missions such as counter-drone, force protection, airport security, border security, coastal surveillance and others, the company said in an announcement.

“Small unmanned aircraft continue to present growing security challenges across military installations, airports, and other key infrastructure sites worldwide,” Rob Tarantino, senior vice president of surveillance at Teledyne FLIR Defense, said in the company’s release. “The Ranger R10-3DX gives operators an affordable, compact, and highly capable radar solution that delivers the early warning and tracking performance needed to counter evolving drone threats.”

The system uses “advanced digital beam-forming technology” and “provides continuous wide-area coverage and rapid threat detection,” the company said, all within a small system. It uses artificial intelligence for target classification, tracking multiple targets simultaneously, to distinguish between drones, planes, bird, people and vehicles while maintaining a small size.

The Ranger R10-3DX is capable of detecting micro drones as far away as three km (1.86 miles), pedestrians beyond six kilometers and vehicles at over 12 kilometers, Teledyne said. It can be outfitted for fixed-site installation or on mobile platforms, to include austere environments.

华盛顿——泰莱达因FLIR防务公司今天宣布，该公司推出了一款新型小型反无人机系统雷达，以帮助部队探测和跟踪威胁。

该公司在一份声明中表示，这款名为 Ranger R10-3DX 的 CUAS 旨在支持一系列任务，例如反无人机、部队保护、机场安全、边境安全、海岸监视等。

“小型无人机持续对全球军事设施、机场和其他关键基础设施构成日益严峻的安全挑战，”泰莱达因FLIR防务公司高级副总裁罗伯·塔兰蒂诺在公司新闻稿中表示。“Ranger R10-3DX为操作人员提供了一种经济实惠、结构紧凑且功能强大的雷达解决方案，能够提供应对不断演变的无人机威胁所需的早期预警和跟踪性能。”

该公司表示，该系统采用“先进的数字波束成形技术”，能够在一个小型系统中“提供连续广域覆盖和快速威胁检测”。它利用人工智能进行目标分类，可同时跟踪多个目标，区分无人机、飞机、鸟类、人员和车辆，同时保持小巧的体积。

泰莱公司表示，Ranger R10-3DX能够探测到远至3公里（1.86英里）的微型无人机、6公里以外的行人以及12公里以上的车辆。它既可用于固定安装，也可用于移动平台，包括在环境恶劣的地区。
