INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Epirus has revealed the introduction of Leonidas H2O, a, high-energy, high-power microwave (HPM) system established to counter boat motors,
unmanned surface vessels (USV) and unmanned aerial cars (UAV)
The system is developed utilizing the scalable Leonidas energy-based, high-power microwave technology platform.Leonidas H2O demonstrated
effectivity against vessel motors at record varieties throughout the United States Navys Advanced Naval Technology Exercise Coastal Trident
(ANTX-CT) program, throughout which the system was tested against 4 commercially readily available vessel motors varying from 40 to 90
horsepower at a wide variety of ranges.The Leonidas H2O model achieved success against all four targets at operationally pertinent
varieties, in spite of range constraints which mandated screening happen at approximately half the optimal potential output power and with
The live fire demonstration was coordinated by Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Huenemes Office of Technology.The Department of Defense has
actually invested years of research study and advancement and poured tens-of-millions of dollars into developing a non-kinetic vessel stop
service, without any operational system deployed to date
With Leonidas H2O, we are coming up with a tested innovation with shown effectiveness to fill this capability space, today, stated Andy
Lowery, Epirus CEO.Epirus participation in these experiments helps to help with early eyes on leading edge technologies that are key to
allowing the Navys mission and assists provide important resources to the project group in assistance of their own technical advancement and
evaluation, included Brendan Applegate, ANTX-Coastal Trident program Principal Investigator.Leonidas H2O leverages Epirus solid-state,
software-defined, high-energy HPM innovation platform that delivers unrivaled counter electronics capabilities
Tested and shown as a scalable counter-swarm solution, all Leonidas variations boast an open architecture, limitless publication and showed
non-kinetic effects against a range of electronic threats.Epirus HPM technology discharges non-ionizing radiation, guaranteeing Leonidas
systems are safe for ordnance, fuel and workers when properly managed.Source: Epirus
