Expert Statements
Roman Köhne, CEO, Rheinmetall Air Defence AG
“Modern airspace is becoming more congested and more difficult to monitor, driven by the proliferation of unmanned aircraft and hard-to-detect aerial technologies.”
Roman Köhne, CEO, Rheinmetall Air Defence AG
“Traditional detection methods alone can struggle with identifying new and novel threats in complex operating conditions. Integrating passive RF sensing into Skymaster enhances air defenders' ability to respond effectively to emerging aerial threats.”
Peter Moss, Director of strategic NATO accounts, Silvus Technologies
“The agreement reflects a shared commitment to delivering resilient air defence systems for allied forces.”
