By GlobalDataDesigned to operate on any type of ground surface, the Ground Fire range system includes a mobile, truck-mounted antenna.
The transmitter / receiver modules that make up the antenna will all be identical and interchangeable, to facilitate series production and maintenance operations.
The Ground Fire range is similar to the Sea Fire family, which will be fitted on the French Navy's intermediate-size frigates.
Both families are based on the principle of modular, scalable architecture.
