About VERA-NG
VERA-NG is the 5th generation of ERAs Passive ESM Tracking (PET) technology designed, developed and manufactured in the Czech Republic. The system, based on the Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) multilateration principle processes signals emitted by air, ground and naval transmitters of all kinds including radars, jammers, SIF/IFF transponders and TACAN/DME interrogators. The system is designed for detection, location and tracking of air, ground, and naval surface targets. It is capable of being used as an Early Warning, Field Intelligence Service or Air Defence System forming part of an integrated defence unit. Its passive operation (no electromagnetic emissions) makes VERA-NG the ultimate in covert surveillance giving it the ability to see without being seen.
