Blighter Surveillance Systems

Blighter Surveillance Systems is a British designer and manufacturer of ground-based radar systems for surveillance applications including border security, coastal monitoring, and aerial threat detection. The company, headquartered in the United Kingdom, positions itself as a world-leading provider of smart radars for securing critical infrastructure and national borders. Blighter's product range encompasses multi-domain radar solutions capable of simultaneously detecting ground-based intrusion threats (crawlers, walkers, vehicles), coastal and maritime targets, and low-flying aerial threats including drones and UAS. The company's technology is deployed by defence and security forces, border agencies, and critical infrastructure operators across the globe. For counter-UAS applications at airports, Blighter radars provide detection of slow-moving, low-observable UAV threats at close to ground level — a particularly challenging environment for conventional radar systems. Blighter's electronic scanning radar (e-scan) technology offers solid-state reliability with no moving parts, 24/7 all-weather operation, and the ability to continue tracking multiple targets simultaneously. Products are integrated with third-party command-and-control systems, electro-optical sensors, and jammers to form layered counter-drone solutions. The B400 Series is the primary ground surveillance radar line, designed for border and perimeter security. The A800 Multi-Mode Radar targets aerial threats. The BlighterNexus suite provides software for human-machine interface, sensor hub integration, and track management. The company is UK-based and exports globally.
