providing Geospatial based Operations’ and ‘Intelligence’ solutions for the Indian Armed Forces and has established a JV with Thales – Rolta Thales Ltd., for developing state-of-the-art Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (C4ISTAR )solutions, with on-going ToT. Recently, Rolta has been awarded manufacturing licenses for defense equipments & systems. Combined together, these exceptional strengths are transforming Rolta and enabling it to become a potent force in addressing requirements of the complete sensor-to-shooter chain.
The suite will enable shared awareness, collaborative fighting, and synchronized effects on the digital battle space.
A battlefield management system to generate shared awareness and ensure synchronized manoeuvre
The Indian Armed Forces are on the threshold of acquiring state-of-the-art communication systems as the essential infrastructure in the Network Centric era
The Defense Forces, in particular the Army, regard maps as indispensable. They provide the vital picture of the terrain or the ground, on which various operations are undertaken, during peace or war. Thus maps printed on paper and sometimes on fabric, have always been an essential part of the army inventory. With the advent of Digital Mapping / Geographic Information System (GIS), the techniques employed in mapping have undergone a sea change. Whereas earlier, maps were entirely based on traditional land surveying techniques, today the technologies of aerial imaging and satellite Remote Sensing have completely revolutionized the techniques of mapping therefore generating fresh demands. The Ministry of Defense’s policy regarding “offsets” makes it mandatory for foreign organizations supplying defense equipment above certain threshold values to undertake obligations to obtain equipment/services from Indian companies up to a percentage of the contract value.This provision will further drive up the demand for defense related solutions and services provided by Rolta. These Battle Labs are being expanded to include comprehensive communication demo capabilities. Apart from demonstrating C4ISTAR, this Battle lab also will incorporate capabilities in designing and fielding of Tactical Communication System (TCS) type of network for the Indian Army, the Battle lab will also be useful in demonstrating the individual communication systems like the High capacity Line of Sight Radio Relay, Secure Wi-Fi, Combat Net Radios, Interoperability Device, etc. This will place us in an advantageous position in the big ticket projects like the Tactical Communication System, Battlefield Management and the Future Digital Soldier Programs.
