ReconneX™ D3000 Series

Expand Spectrum Awareness Across Unmanned Platforms

ReconneX™ D3000 Series dimensions - 6.22 cm high, 10.9 cm wide and 15.9 cm long

Built for dense, contested electromagnetic environments, the ReconneX D3000 Series combines direct RF sampling, advanced digital processing and compact direction-finding antennas to detect and characterize agile and low-probability-of-intercept emitters. Designed for unmanned aircraft, ground vehicles and surface vessels, D3000 supports wide-area surveillance, long-range collection and geolocation in mobile and fixed-site deployments.

Built around the Spectrum Server™ software- and firmware-defined open architecture, D3000 allows customers to tailor frequency coverage, bandwidth and mission functionality. Sold with DiSCO™ (Distributed Spectrum Collaboration and Operations) technology and incorporating the ARKENSTONE Agentic AI layer, the system supports independent and coordinated operations across distributed users and locations.

Key Benefits

  • Bring Electronic Support to Small Platforms: A compact, low-SWaP design enables RF surveillance aboard unmanned air, ground and surface platforms.
  • Detect and Characterize Modern Threats: Advanced digital processing supports real-time detection and accurate measurement of agile and low-probability-of-intercept emitters.
  • Adapt to Evolving Missions: A modular, open architecture supports tailored configurations, third-party analytics and future capability growth.
  • Enable Collaborative Operations: DiSCO technology connects distributed users and systems, including ReconneX D5000 and D7000 receivers.
  • Reduce Operator Workload: Automated threat identification, intuitive controls and remote operation simplify mission execution.
