Business Area

1 - Integrated sensor solutions for Air, Land, Naval and Security
HENSOLDT defence industry developer of Land Air Sea Solutions and Products Germany Land 925 001
The true might of HENSOLDT’s powerful sensors comes to show when they are combined as an integrated solution. A solution starts already with integrating two or three sensors with an intuitive management system but can be enhanced to a full networked system, fusing large amounts of data using artificial intelligence and augmented reality.

With the company’s solutions, detection capabilities are improved substantially, and a comprehensive operational picture with actionable intelligence is provided. The sensor-to-shooter cycle is completed with the integration of highly automated self-defence systems, counter-drone technology and advanced targeting systems

This relieves the decision-making burden on users, even in complex situations. In this way, HENSOLDT is offering users unprecedented possibilities.

Customers benefit from reduced complexity, less risk and cost and a quicker time to market as the number of suppliers can be minimized and equipment interoperability is guaranteed.

At the heart of HENSOLDT’s business lie sensors for superior performance in any environment. With decades of experience, we provide systems based on radar, IFF, opto-electronic, electronic warfare, avionics and cyber technology to support armed and security forces. By detecting a wide range of objects and targets, our products provide the best possible support to those who protect and defend us and our values.

In complex threat scenarios, one can only achieve deterrence and superiority – and therefore survivability and effectiveness – if one’s forces can perform the Find, Fix, Track, Target, Engage, Assess cycle faster and more effectively than the enemy.

Therefore, we enhance our sensors with state-of-the-art, artificial intelligence and data driven software to ensure that the people who make the decisions get the best information that they need at the right time for responsible control and management of their own platforms, sensors and weapons.

Services for the entire product life cycle
HENSOLDT defence industry developer of Land Air Sea Solutions and Products Germany services 925 001
HENSOLDT products often have to last multiple decades. Consequently, it must be possible to adapt them to new challenges during this time, which also means that users need ongoing training.

That is why HENSOLDT divided its Service portfolio into three strategic areas: Aftermarket Product and System Support, Simulation Solutions and Special Services. Based on decades of experience, all three areas contribute significantly to customers satisfaction with HENSOLDT products.

Aftermarket Product and System Support - From development to decommissioning
The Aftermarket Product and System Support area forms the core of HENSOLDT’s service offering. With different service agreements and an entire catalogue of customer services, up to and including full-service offerings, HENSOLDT ensures functionality is maintained throughout each product’s entire life cycle.

With service centres around the world, HENSOLDT’s customer services team supports several hundred direct customers in keeping them operational.

Complementing training courses with their modular concept form an interface between HENSOLDT equipment and the people who operate and maintain it.

Simulation - When theory becomes practice
Simulation systems proves that breaking new ground is now practically routine practice for Services. HENSOLDT provides train simulation solutions for train drivers in Germany, Italy and India, for instance. And in defence demand for simulators is rising due to ever more challenging operational requirements in relation to increasingly complex technology. In this context, HENSOLDT is currently developing training simulators for its radars, naturally with Services at the helm.

Special Services offer tailored solutions for HENSOLDT products and third-party portfolios. For example shelters, test benches, testers and off-grip power systems are provided.

Services by HENSOLDT keep armed and security forces operational.

One of the things the current conflicts have taught us is that the military hardware we are used to, especially ground-based machines like tanks and troop carriers, are utterly useless when no anti-air support is around. The sky is filled with drones, loitering munitions, and other types of aerial threats. That were less the case a few years back. Therefore, HENSOLDT optimised its SPEXER 2000 3D MkIII radar to give the soldier the best situational awareness in any mission.
