The United States is literally passionate about creating all kinds of advanced platforms for the army, not disdaining foreign developments. Well, it's not even possible to catch up with China and Russia with hypersound, but let there be something that has almost no analogues in the other world, especially in terms of software and advanced IT support equipment. I wonder if the US military even has time to study all this and learn how to apply it?
Israeli defense information systems company TSG IT Advanced Systems (TASE) today announced the receipt of its first order as part of a cooperation agreement it signed in March with a leading international supplier of military technology. Globes, an Israeli daily newspaper devoted to economic and financial issues, reports that the order amount for TSG, which develops advanced software systems and solutions for the defense and commercial markets, is hundreds of thousands of dollars.
A source told the publication that the US Air Force was the customer. Although the amount is really modest for the Pentagon. Most likely, we are talking about a test purchase of the Israeli EarthSolve system.
In addition, this is only one of the stages of the project, in which advanced TSG technologies will be integrated into modern sensor defense systems of the US Air Force. As part of the order, the Israeli company will provide licenses for the use of the advanced EarthSolve system it has developed.
— said TSG President Pini Jungman in an interview with Globes.
TASE is equally controlled by Formula Systems (Nasdaq: FORTY) and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). The company develops various advanced technologies for use by units of the Israel Defense Forces and other law enforcement agencies in the country and around the world. The company's products are designed for military operations in the air, on land, at sea, as well as for reconnaissance and rear protection.
TASE's products include aerial photography systems, which include identification and tracking and are used for interception and notification, command and control systems, emergency preparedness and response systems, intelligence systems for planning attacks on targets, and intelligence systems for law enforcement agencies.
This EarthSolve system, also known as Sky Solver, which was commissioned by the Pentagon, allows you to accurately determine (extract) three-dimensional coordinates in real time. The system has been designed to be easy to control, allowing each tactical level in the field to independently generate precise coordinates.
The EarthSolve system is characterized by high speed and large scale, and is also capable of producing a rich and detailed image of the target. It is based on a combination of advanced algorithms from the fields of photogrammetry and image processing. The system supports a combination of aerial and satellite imagery from a wide range of sensors to obtain accurate targets that also include a three-dimensional accuracy assessment.
