CILAS of France
CILAS of France
has developed
the SLD 500LR long-range laser
detector to help minimise this
threat.
Based on the cat’s eye effect,
the system relies on an optical
system, such as a scope,
camera lens or weapon sight,
to return some back-scattered
energy when illuminated by a
laser beam. In this manner, it
can detect, locate and identify
any kind of optical sight system
up to 2,000m away in hostile environment.
CILAS claims the system
to be combat proven, having
been used by the British Army
and the US Marines, as well
as police and security services
in several undisclosed countries.
