The Everest NL network integrates a variety of live system representations focusing on tactical and broadband communications, intelligence, surveillance & reconnaissance (ISR), electronic warfare (EW) and counter-small unmanned aircraft systems (C-sUAS), battle management systems & network management as well as infrastructure for tactical operation centers, vehicles and soldiers. In the synergetic combination of its individual components, it aims at unfolding the following operational benefits:
- Enhancing NATO & coalition collaboration effectiveness: demonstrating readily available, in-service equipment from a collaborative industry-consortium as well as an interoperable C5ISR network offering comprehensive situational awareness and flexible use.
- Shortening the planning, decision and action cycle: demonstrating the ease of use in planning, configuration and monitoring as well as a rapid information flow allowing for the distribution but concentrated effect of military assets.
- Increase military forces survivability: demonstrating tested, integrated and battle-proven technology as well as reliable and resilient connectivity in a PACE (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, and Emergency) network for the manoeuvre forces.
As the global security landscape evolves, Western military forces are dealing with a breadth of diverse challenges in parallel. While the changed threat environment shifts the focus back to high-intensity warfare scenarios under the NATO umbrella, military readiness must swiftly increase - in quality but also in size. At the same time, modern technology leads the way to a paradigm change in the application of C5ISR.
In partnership with L3Harris, military planners and users can trust in the support required to source readily available, state of the art technology at necessary scale and time. Everest NL builds on this promise with a live example turned into reality.
