Inside MSI's Next Generation of Counter-Drone Defense

EGLEs is now fielded and currently in operational use with U.S. Army soldiers

The second is EGLEs X is in development, and we're looking to show the world early next year what that looks like

And third, we have now pivoted into maritime weapons integration. So that's the three things that are new with MSI

What we've learned from recent conflicts is that battlefield commanders need options

With the mass in terms of threats that they're facing on their border

and we hear a lot about layered defense in relationship to those threats

so they need options to be able to tailor their formations and deal with those threats

Because of the inexpensive threats that are out there, the effectors of choice are going to have to be able to meet that cost exchange

and provide commanders a cost-effective way of dealing with multiple different platforms that are coming at them on the battlefield. We've taken Eagles and

we developed it into a multi platform So no longer are we focused on just one type of effector but we focused on providing the commander the choices that they need in order to tailor those formations

to meet the evolving threats of the current battlefield. So whether it is a threat that is

in the range of one kilometer or whether it is a threat that is in the range of seven kilometers

Eagles is moving in a direction where they will be able to tailor their formation

in a layered approach to meet those threats. The common deck is the foundation of our system to make it modular

Modularity is key to giving battlefield commanders those options that they need

to face the threats, the changing threats and evolving threats on the battlefield. MSI is focused on the future fight

Cost exchange is critical, and we are built to ensure, as we address counter-UAS and air defense

that we integrate the most effective systems to ensure the most cost-effective exchange ratio for the warfighter
