Marte
Marte comprises a surface coastal radar
system, a command and control
shelter, and a number of Marte mis-
sile launchers. Rapidly redeployable
to coastal sites and small islands,
the system can be connected via
datalink to an upper echelon of
command and control, if required.
GEM Elettronica’s CBRS-100MD
coastal battery remote station is
a compact shelter-based system
incorporating a solid-state LPI (low
probability of intercept) radar system
designed for short- to medium-range
coastal surveillance missions out
to a maximum range of 100 nauti-
cal miles.
As an option, GEM is also
offering an adjunct electro-optical/
infrared sensor package to provide
positive identification of tracks.
Marte missiles are fired from
a four-round pedestal-mounted
launcher.
The system can be
configured to use either the
intermediate-range (out to 35km)
Marte Mk 2/N missile, or the new
turbojet-powered Marte ER (able to
achieve a range beyond 100km).
