About

The Ministry of Defence awarded a contract to Roke Manor Research Limited for the provision of ZODIAC Alpha, the core system of the Land Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) programme.

The contract, valued at AUD 6,680,241.54, covers a system that integrates individual ISTAR sensors into a coherent network and uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled automation to speed and improve the ISTAR cycle, including intelligence requirements management, sensor planning, command and control of sensors (including cross-cueing), and processing.

ZODIAC will work in conjunction with HYDRA, a cloud-based fusion and analytic capability, and will operate both in field deployments and at home base, allowing Army ISR operators to be persistently engaged in intelligence development.

The system will operate on the LE TacCIS field network.
