Kongsberg has selected the U.S. company’s MESA radar for air and surface applications, including integration with Protector remote weapon stations.

The Ukrainian Navy said its armed unmanned surface vessel engaged an unidentified Russian USV with a Kongsberg-made 12.7 mm remote weapon station.

The company is investing $40 million in a facility designed to produce 30,000 compact radar panels annually as demand rises for short-range counter-UAS sensors.
