The partnership combines Sentinel’s operationally proven laser threat detection and protection technology with Galvion’s expertise in soldier system integration and its global defence relationships.
The investment will support continued product development and the integration of laser defence capabilities into soldier systems and broader defence platforms. It is also expected to deepen North American engagement with laser defence as a critical capability for NATO and coalition forces operating in contested environments.
Christoper Burgess, CEO at Sentinel Photonics, said: “Laser threats are already active across multiple theatres and demand for effective detection and protection is increasing quickly. Partnering with Galvion allows us to speed up the integration of laser awareness into soldier systems and allied platforms and get proven capability into the hands of warfighters faster.”
Jonathan Blanshay, Executive Chairman at Galvion, said: “Galvion is focused on enhancing the performance and survivability of the world’s most demanding military and tactical teams. With Sentinel, we can give frontline operators earlier warning of hostile laser activity, protecting them and their equipment while maintaining mission effectiveness.”
Both Sentinel Photonics and Galvion have deployed systems in operational theatres across multiple allied nations, providing these capabilities to personnel and platforms operating in high-threat environments.
