Indra deploys critical defence technologies at the World Defense Show: aerial vehicles, counter‑drone systems, cyber defence, command and control, 3D AESA radars, and satellites

Indra, a global leading company in the defence, aerospace and advanced digital technology sectors, is presenting at the World Defense Show (WDS)—held in Saudi Arabia from 8 to 12 February—its air‑defence systems, radars, multipurpose aerial vehicles, satellites, artificial intelligence platforms and cyber‑defence solutions.

A full display of cutting‑edge technologies designed to enable the world’s most advanced armed forces to conduct multi‑domain operations and respond to emerging threats on the battlefield.

The company will feature an immersive room at WDS where it will showcase, with full realism, its AirDef solution—one of the most advanced air‑defence command‑and‑control systems currently available on the market. This space will also exhibit Indra’s ECYSAP cyber‑situational awareness system, a pioneering solution shaping the next generation of cyber‑defence systems, as well as its IndraMind artificial intelligence platform, designed to provide comprehensive protection for citizens, territories, critical infrastructure and strategic assets, both physical and digital.

Visitors to Indra’s stand will also be able to learn first‑hand about the VALERO system, a next‑generation multipurpose aerial vehicle developed by the company and capable of carrying different payloads according to the mission, performing surveillance, electronic warfare, communications or tactical support tasks.

Indra will likewise showcase its MTR (Multimission Terrestrial Radar) systems featuring state‑of‑the‑art, highly mobile Full AESA technology, which deliver exceptional target‑detection capabilities and fire‑superiority performance (Ground Based Air Defense, Weapons Allocation System). The company will also present its iKeeper radar—suitable for aerial surveillance and counter‑drone applications—and its Nemus Compact radar, a Full AESA system integrated into active protection solutions to counter drones, loitering munitions and missile attacks. Attendees will also be able to learn about the air‑defence capabilities of the Lanza 3D radar family, exported worldwide and supplied to NATO, a system capable of detecting tactical ballistic missiles (TBM) and covering the surveillance of the entire south‑western European flank.

To detail the advantages these systems provide, Francisco Jiménez, Director of Defence Systems Business Development at Indra, will give a presentation on Tuesday, 10 February, on “Opportunities Enabled by AESA Technologies for Advanced Defence and Dual‑Use Capabilities.”

Finally, Indra will present the capabilities of its satellite communications terminals and will exhibit its high‑precision Mini4EO Earth‑observation satellite, specifically designed to support border surveillance, strategic‑environment monitoring and military operations in remote scenarios. This is an example of Indra’s space‑domain capabilities, which include the deployment of complete satellite constellations that increasingly play a key role in providing communications, intelligence and positioning in any military operation.

Enrique Lázaro, Indra’s International Defence Director for Asia‑Pacific, Africa and the Middle East, stated that “Indra is one of the few defence companies in the world capable of delivering systems based on proprietary technology across all five defence domains—land, sea, air, space and cyberspace.” He added that “our commitment to constant innovation places us at the forefront and allows us to deliver systems adapted to the most complex operational environments.”

Indra maintains a strong presence in the Gulf region, with facilities in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Bahrain, and has delivered critical defence systems in the main countries across the region.
