Allen-Vanguard, a global leader in Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA), has secured over $3 million worth of new contracts for its vehicle-based Electronic Countermeasure (ECM) system (3XXX) and highly adaptable man-portable ECM system (SCORPION 2) to enhance the force protection and C-IED capability of two African nations. Allen-Vanguard will be at Eurosatory, Hall 5a – DE345 to discuss all their integrated RF protection products and capabilities to defeat modern threats.
Allen-Vanguard are experts in delivering integrated, platform-agnostic RF electronic warfare, counter-RCIED and counter-UAS solutions. It has over 25 years of operational experience in the design, development and deployment of integrated, platform-agnostic systems tailored to counter evolving threats in high-risk environments. Its capabilities enable the detection, disruption and protection of personnel across complex battlespaces, supporting defence, security and public safety organisations worldwide. Allen-Vanguard combines proven technology with comprehensive training, threat-informed updates and through-life support to ensure sustained effectiveness and mission readiness in high-risk operational scenarios.
Due to the sensitivity and security risks associated with the customer’s theatre of operations, it is not possible to disclose the purchasing nations or specify the deployment plans for this new capability. However, these initial orders are a major force protection capability uplift for the end user. It will deliver enhanced individual, vehicle and vulnerable point protection to security forces operating in high-risk Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RC-IED) environments and, in addition, help mitigate the increasing threat posed by the use of Uncrewed Air Systems (UAS), such as drones, to conduct aggressive ISTAR activity or deliver lethal effects.
The contracts come with a full support package, including training for users, technicians and mission-fill development. This support includes the deployment of Field Service Representatives to ensure the development of indigenous ECM capability and reach back to the Threat Management Team.
This team of RF experts optimise algorithms specific to the end user’s needs to combat evolving threats specific to their region of operations. This comprehensive wrap-around support maximises the protection offered by the ECM systems, both from a physical capability perspective but also from the essential changes to tactics, techniques and procedures necessary to keep operators safe.
Stuart Wilson, Director Business Development & Marketing at Allen-Vanguard, said: “We have a long history of providing force protection capability to African nations and associated peace-keeping forces, and we are extremely pleased to secure these new contracts to maintain and enhance this important relationship with the region. Unfortunately, the significant threat to security forces in Africa from UXOs, IEDs, RC-IEDs and other RF hazards remains high, and has only been exacerbated by the growing threat from UAS. Our systems are not only market leading in relation to their technology and capability, but our support packages also ensure purchasing nations improve their wider ECM capability and remain updated with the latest algorithms and software to maintain their protection. For this reason, we are trusted and operationally proven with NATO countries and peace-keeping forces globally.”
