Thales has one objective: to design effective solutions to counter the threats

Protecting forces in the theatre of operations calls on a wide range of technologies — some of them simple, others much more complex. Thales has many years of experience in this field and has developed some particularly innovative solutions to protect soldiers against a broad array of threats.

These threats include improvised explosive devices, or IEDs. IEDs are low-cost weapons, but they are particularly devastating. Every year, many soldiers are wounded or killed by IEDs. With its ECLIPSE product for vehicles and STORM-H for dismounted soldiers, Thales offers effective solutions to counter the threat from remote-controlled IEDs.
