Today, at an arms fair in Paris, Israel will present to the public its new invention - IronVision system that allows the tank team actually see through the armor.


IronVision system is designed to solve one of the major problems which the crews of tanks and armored personnel carriers face - a limited field of vision. Until today, the only solution was to open the manhole to look out, thus - to set oneself on fire.

Israeli scientists developed the device, that looks like a helmet and gives the ability to look through the tank: system consists from the helmet and cameras, that are placed on the tank base. Information from cameras is transferred to the helmet display, and is adjusted according to the angle or position of operators’ head. Additionally, visor can receive the picture from UAV. Display has indication of friends and foes with blue and red colors respectively. The technology behind this is kept secret but it is obvious that such device can save countless lives among both military and civilian.

One more development of Israeli engineers is radar, that can track living force deep in the green zones. It will not only track motion, but will inform who is moving – military, civilian, or the pack of boars. System SuperVisIR has the ability to transfer panoramic picture of surrounding directly to the monitor. It is basically the observation post where one spot works as ten. This system can analyze the movement and provide the targeting for aviation of artillery.

Israel is considered a world leader in cyber security, tactical use of digital technology, production of drones. Once again I repeat that all this has become possible only thanks to a complex state support, so today Israel can boast of such unique developments. I hope that Ukraine will be able to boast of new tactical armament, instead of another corruption scandal in the state purchases system.
