Project EVEREST

PROTECTION

Ukraine has demonstrated the vulnerability of static, grouped teams. The EVEREST experiment facilitated dispersed HQs with an unprecedented degree of mobility.

DRONE AWARENESS AND C-sUAS

Low-cost disposable drones are the new threat vector. EVEREST showed how this threat can be neutralised with C-sUAS systems, supported by land Ground Based Air Defence (GBAD). 

INTEGRATED 8

Informing and de-risking the Army’s Integrated 8, and more urgently 4+1.

COALITION INTEROPERABILITY 

To increase operational effectiveness with major improvements to always-on situational awareness.

NEW CONOPS

EVEREST explored the leap in bandwidth resulting from High Capacity Line of Sight (HCLOS) technologies, facilitating the dispersed HQ, point to point VoIP calls and conferencing and innovative sensor arrays.

HF FOR THE BACKHAUL

Modern HF enables all-informed situational awareness and data nets, long range voice and data, Last Ditch Data (LDD) and allied interoperability in a well-established, reliable architecture.

DEMOCRATISATION OF EW 

Down to the patrol level, enabling rich, networked and resilient electronic surveillance capability, rapidly reconfigurable to electronic attack or protection.

SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS 

Enabling tactical flexibility and dispersed operational connectivity with UK defence CIS at multiple classifications and global reach via multiple constellations, bringing choice and resilience.
