>> LIGHT FANTASTIC: THE HEART OF DOMINATOR LD AT A GLANCE
✪ RAPTOR is a compact, rugged, all-in-one wearable computing unit that offers the dismounted soldier complete situational awareness through net-centric integrated information systems. Fully integrated with tactical networks, the unit’s miniature dimensions and ergonomic design are tailored to battlefield conditions, allowing for ease-of-use without interfering with the soldier’s fighting ability.
✪ TADIRAN PNR-1000A is an advanced, compact personal
network radio which integrates high quality intra-platoon voice communications with embedded C4I application capabilities and a GPS. Features include dynamic network
architecture for voice, data and video communications, priority mode communications, interconnectivity to long-range radio networks and a huge operational range.
✪ JS EYEPIECE is a hand-held display unit with minimal distortion,
a wide field of view and zero-light emission for night-time operation. The digital compass and camera are integrated with the personal display unit (PDU) and Elbit’s Torch command and control application. Creating a force multiplier for management of all phases of combat, the JS Eyepiece camera supports augmented reality of command and control data and includes planning, execution,
navigation, target acquisition and debriefing capabilities.
✪ TORCH –D is a cross platform command and control application
designed for the dismounted infantry soldier. It provides real-time situational awareness, including Blue Force Tracker, enemy tracks and on-the-move combat management support. Fully integrated with Elbit’s TIGER – Tactical Information Grid Infrastructure – the application disseminates geography and location and can integrate with multiple networks. The multi- purpose Human Machine Interface (HMI) allows radio control from within the application display and includes a covert mode for night operations.
systems in operational enøvironments. Dominator-LD has a unique modular approach, enabling a small number of components to be configured in the field in various combinations, to support different operational needs. It weighs less than 1kg and operates for over 24 hours, offering a pioneering C41 system that significantly improves the soldier’s lethality, mobility and survivability in the ever-changing modern battlefield.
Real-time transmission
When outfitted with Dominator-LD, soldiers can send and receive information in real-time, view live operational pictures and videos from external or on- body sensors and transmit images and positions back to the command post and colleagues.

The solution’s modular design and open architecture enables easy growth potential through integration with any Battle Management Systems (such as Elbit’s Torch) and coalition forces as well as with all of the Dominator IICS systems and sub- systems – among them the Skylark I-LE Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), the Mars un-cooled thermal imaging camera, the Coral thermal imaging camera, the S-NAV soldier navigating system and more. The new addition to the Elbit family gives the dismounted soldier a tremendous amount of flexibility and versatility. To cope with the harsh terrain now encountered in theatre, the extensively- tested Dominator-LD has stood up to a great deal of punishment and proved to be a robust, rugged performer. ■
