The Integrated Combat Solution tool will give Warfighters the situational awareness they need for any mission, as well as options to respond to potential threats
BAE Systems has entered into a teaming agreement with Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace to bring Integrated Combat Solution (ICS) to the U.S. defense market. The transformational battlefield situational awareness tool for combat vehicles will provide the Warfighter with the capability to link and share video streams, metadata, target information, slew-to-cue commands, and much more, reducing the typical threat response speed from minutes to seconds. Together, with Kongsberg developing the ICS tool and BAE Systems integrating it onto combat vehicles, the companies will support technology upgrades through the product lifecycles.
“The ability for troops to rapidly pass targeting information across the battlefield to other platforms and engage a target remotely is critical to their mission,” Andy Corea, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems’ Combat Mission Systems business, said. “The combined talents of Kongsberg’s innovation and expertise in remote weapon systems and our lead systems integration capability provides the Warfighter the opportunity to obtain fully integrated enhanced combat capability – helping them stay aware and unmatched in battle.”
ICS is a tool that can be used across the U.S. Marine or U.S. Army’s fleet of vehicles as a critical enabler of their mission. Built with an open-systems approach, ICS can be integrated on any battlefield platform equipped with a weapon system and on-board sensors – keeping troops aware and safer in the fight. ICS will give Warfighters more options to respond to potential threats, matching the rapid pace of warfare in the future. ICS uses an integrated network to link the sensors on different battlefield assets together, allowing command and control of weapon stations, turrets, jammers and other effectors from a single screen inside the vehicle.
“Together we will deliver ICS as a core enabler of modern warfare, providing all-domain visibility, command and control,” said Kjetil Reiten Myhra, executive vice president defence systems, Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace. “This force multiplier streamlines complicated threat responses, networking mobility platforms and other assets for increased combat capability.”
The ICS capability has already been demonstrated on the Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) and Armored Multi-Purpose vehicle platforms, and the combined team of BAE Systems and Kongsberg looks forward to the opportunity to provide it across the ground combat forces. The ICS system is also featured at the BAE Systems booth (#6041) at AUSA this week on the Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle (AMPV) platform, further demonstrating the team’s ability to integrate it on different combat vehicles.

• Photonis and Qioptiq join forces to enhance British Army’s combat capabilities with cutting-edge imaging technology
• This 7-year framework contract aims at equipping British soldiers with Qioptiq’s advanced TALON Fused Weapon Sights
Photonis, an Exosens subsidiary and global leader in image intensification technology, has been awarded a significant role in a seven-year contract from the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) in collaboration with Qioptiq Limited. This contract is aimed at enhancing the operational effectiveness of British Army assault rifles.
Awarded by the Dismounted Close Combat project team, the contract focuses on the continued procurement of the TALON Fused Weapon Sight, an advanced system that integrates image intensification with thermal imaging (see picture below). Photonis will supply the high-performance 4G 16mm image intensifier tubes for the TALON systems, contributing to the overall performance and reliability of these critical combat devices.
The TALON Fused Weapon Sight is an integral part of the UK MoD’s Assault Rifle In-Line Low Light Sight (ARILLS) capability. It is designed to provide British soldiers with superior visibility and situational awareness in low-light environments and difficult operational settings.
“Photonis is proud to be part of this strategic initiative to enhance the British Army’s combat effectiveness,” said Frédéric Guilhem, Chief Commercial Officer from Photonis. “Our world-class image intensification technology will ensure that British forces are equipped with the best possible technology for success in critical operations.”
Qioptiq Limited, a leader in advanced optical and sighting systems, is responsible for delivering the TALON Fused Weapon Sight. With its dual-channel capability, which seamlessly combines image intensification and thermal imaging, the TALON system ensures interoperability with the existing fleet, continuing to play a vital role in the Army’s close combat operations.
At the heart of this system is the Photonis high-performance 4G 16mm image intensifier tube, renowned for its unmatched resolution and SWaP reduction (Size Weight and Power). This advanced intensifier tube allows soldiers to detect and identify targets with superior clarity, even in the darkest and most adverse nights. The compact 16mm format offers significant weight and space savings without compromising performance, ensuring enhanced mobility and operational efficiency for the user.
This contract underscores Photonis’ commitment to delivering innovative imaging solutions tailored to the needs of modern defense forces. As part of Exosens Group, Photonis continues to be at the forefront of technological advancements, offering unrivaled expertise in image intensification for military applications.
