SPART

The RC-IED threat
Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices (RC-IEDs) are proliferating in theatres of operation.
Often used in asymmetric conflicts by irregular combatants, they represent a real danger for civilian and military populations.
Mine explosions have become the leading cause of death for French soldiers in operations Serval and Barkhane combined.

SPART – a key player in force protection
Whether in the battlefield or on home ground, SPART provides a protective radius around the user, ensuring maximum safety during operations.
With real-time listening capabilities, the system detects RC-IEDs and generates effective jamming, preventing communication between the trigger and its remote control, leaving time for the demining teams to manage the device.
Its ultra-wide bandwidth and responsiveness make the SPART a unique reference solution in the fight against RC-IEDs.
Easy to use and lightweight, the system can be worn directly on the intervention forces or on an embedded system such as a vehicle, robot or drone in remote mode.
The system offers 3 modes of operation

3 operating modes
Active mode : Active mode allows the programming of continuous jamming of specific frequencies and thus forms a protective bubble for the intervention team. This mode continuously emits radio frequency signals on the frequency bands programmed upstream of the operation.
Reactive mode : Reactive mode with 100% autonomous listening, detection and neutralisation. This mode allows the intervention team, using SPART, to listen to the environment and jam only when a threat is detected. Reactive mode uses very short periods of observation, which allows the team to search for new threats while jamming known active threats.
Hybrid mode :Hybrid mode is the combination of active and reactive modes, the two strengths of SPART technology, to ensure maximum safety for the intervention teams.
