Indra to supply air defence radar to Thailand

Indra has been awarded a contract to supply the Thai Air Force with a long-range Lanza radar.

The system is capable of detecting fifth-generation aircraft, ballistic missiles and drones and is particularly suited to detecting targets in rainy areas such as Thailand. It uses dedicated algorithms to counter attempts to interfere with its functioning, and has the ability to mitigate the effects of wind turbines and solar plants, which cause reflections that can also affect detection.

This will be the second radar delivered to the Thai Air Force by Indra. The company has already put a long-range radar of similar characteristics into service, accompanied by a system known as Airdef to monitor the status of the airspace and conduct air missions.
