Hensoldt SA announces launch of new radar business and development of new radar

Hensoldt South Africa (Hensoldt SA), the local subsidiary of the Germany-based Hensoldt group, has launched a new radar business. This step followed the company’s acquisition of the defence and security and air traffic management (ATM) business units of another South African company, Tellumat, at the end of last year. These businesses were then integrated with Hensoldt SA’s own radar and other technological capabilities to form its new Radar Business Unit.  “With the integration of the Tellumat Defence & Security and ATM business units into Hensoldt South Africa, we are now representing the three major sensor solution business lines of the Hensoldt group here in South Africa,” highlighted Hensoldt SA MD Rynier van der Watt. “Expanding from Optronics and Spectrum Dominance [electronic and cyber warfare and intelligence technologies] to now also include radar, identification friend or foe (IFF) and datalinks therefore creating a complete sensor solutions offering.”
