To demonstrate the ease of mission system integration Supacat have collaborated with Exsel, Dedrone and Leonardo DRS:

Exsel specialises in the design and integration of mission equipment into mobile platforms and container based solutions. This installation demonstrates the ease of integration of a lightweight mast onto an HMT platform. The mast utilises the vehicle onboard air to rise to 6m, with up to 20kg of interchangeable masthead payloads.

Dedrone provides essential tools for soldiers to stay ahead of ever evolving drone threats. Their Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) detection technology has been integrated onto the mast.

The systems integrated onto the Supacat HMT platform are designed to equip soldiers with the means to identify and respond to threats effectively and help protect lives.
