Sigma Defense said Monday the acquisition aims to bolster its ISR and CJADC2 capabilities at the operational edge. The company will incorporate Aries Defense’s edge ISR technologies into its Olympus ecosystem.
Enhancing Real-Time Situational Awareness
The deal supports Sigma Defense’s mission to deliver resilient, software-defined CJADC2 capabilities that provide commanders and warfighters with ISR-to-CJADC2 integration, scalable sensor operations, real-time situational awareness, interoperability and rapid deployment in disconnected environments.
Aries Defense’s fielded technologies, including OverWatch, CheckPoints, Recon V OverWatch and NEOS, enable persistent surveillance and full-motion video in denied, degraded intermittent and limited, or D-DIL, environments. These systems are deployed under U.S. Marine Corps programs of record.
