The Tridon Mk2 builds upon the legacy of the original Tridon system, renowned for its dependability, with enhanced capabilities to mitigate a wide range of threats from drones to aircraft. The system offers security and protection for military forces and civil infrastructure across large areas.
Chess Dynamics’ expertise in surveillance, fire control and precision positioning has been instrumental in accurately delivering live target coordinates to the Tridon Mk2 for a ground-based air defence (GBAD) role.
The Tridon Mk2 fire control system is a variant of Chess’ Hawkeye Air Defence (AD) system. The Hawkeye AD system provides an integrated fire control solution for all types of ballistic effectors. It contains high-definition thermal imager and daylight TV sensors, coupled with a high-performance laser range finder, all co-mounted on a dynamic direct-drive positioner. With a built-in tracker, Hawkeye AD delivers precise 3-D coordinates of both air and surface targets to gun control or combat systems.
“We are incredibly proud to work with BAE Systems Bofors on this critical project,” said David Tuddenham, Managing Director at Chess Dynamics. “Our Electro-Optic Fire Control pedigree in both the Land and Maritime domains delivers class leading GBAD technology and capabilities for BAE Systems Bofors and the Tridon Mk2 end users. This significant project for Chess builds on many years of partnership with BAE Systems”.
The collaboration between Chess Dynamics and BAE Systems Bofors underscores their commitment to delivering cutting-edge defence solutions to meet the evolving needs of modern warfare.
