The Saab Microwave Systems-developed ARTHUR is a battlefield surveillance system that detects and promptly responds to the sources of enemy fire.
The system records critical information about enemy artillery and transmits it to a dedicated command and control centre for quick reaction.
The easy deployment and mobility in the field allows the system to perform in all weather conditions. In addition, the radars can cooperate with unmanned aerial vehicles and be integrated with Nato command and control systems.
