Land and C4I Systems:
Elbit Systems’ C4I software solutions for the infantry (C4I SW), together with the decades of communications experience of Tadiran Communications, offer extensive, battle-proven expertise for the most intense combat scenarios. It supports planning, situational awareness, target handling, devices connectivity as well as video and map displays. It also provides command and control functionalities for all levels of commands of light infantry forces along with interface to armored units, artillery and close air support. Interfacing and operating with all existing communication equipment, Elbit Systems equips infantry soldiers with highly-advanced, miniaturized high-tech tools mounted on backs or helmets for enhanced situational awareness, quicker response and ultimately increased efficiency in mission performance.

Dominator® Integrated Infantry Combat System (IICS)
Dominator® empowers infantry units with full situational awareness, networking them into integrated information systems. Land warriors can send and receive information in real time, view up-to-the-minute situation pictures (hostile and own forces) on personal displays as well as live video from either external or on body sensors and transmit images and positions back to command units.

The following are part of the Dominator® IICS gear:

PDU – Personal Digital Unit- a ruggedized, tactical powerful computer especially designed for the individual infantry warrior. The compact, energy-efficient, computer empowers the soldier with data processing and storage capabilities, includes an integrated GPS and the Integrated Infantry Combat System C2 application, and the TIGER® system.


TIGER® (Tactical Intranet Geographic Dissemination in Real-time) enhances real-time decision making at all force levels by unifying all channels, integrating them into one dynamic tactical intranet and creating interest-based, geographic data dissemination.
Eyepiece- a high quality display for the C4I picture and live video and built-in LOS (Line Of Sight) sensors, the eyepiece may be mounted on a helmet, on the warrior's vest or as part of the weapon-mounted Fire Control System.

Hand-held Display- a compact portable display, sunlight readable, 5.6" or 8" touch panel screen and operation function keys. This display is designed to display the C2 application and streaming video.
