AUDS (Anti-UAV Defence System)

Blighter radar + Chess optics + ECS jammer, US-primed.

AUDS is a long-established integrated C-UAS combining Blighter A400 radar, Chess Dynamics EO/IR optics and Enterprise Control Systems' jammer. Liteye primes US sales and was the first non-US system approved for US Army C-UAS use. For GCC, Liteye channels through regional agents, and ITAR applies only to the US-integrator content — Blighter and Chess subsystems can be sourced directly if the customer prefers a non-US integration path. Airport variants disable kinetic and use only soft-kill ECS jamming under CAA waiver.
