Laser Warning Control Unit – LWS-2
LWS-2 / DIGITAL CONTROL
Laser Warning Control Unit – LWS-2
Laser Warning Control Unit – LWS-2 is a compact digital control unit developed to manage and monitor laser warning systems on military and security vehicles. Designed for ease of use and rapid response, the unit provides centralized control, visualization and system verification through an integrated touch screen interface.
Compact touch-screen control, visualization and diagnostic management for vehicle-mounted laser warning systems.
Centralized Control and Visualization for Laser Warning Systems
LWS-2 is designed to control and manage laser warning systems installed on military platforms. By receiving and displaying laser threat data from connected sensors, the control unit supports operator awareness and enables effective system supervision during high-risk missions.
The compact digital architecture combines touch-screen interaction, real-time threat visualization, diagnostic capability and vehicle-system communication within a single control unit.
Where to Use / Deployment
The control unit is suitable for wheeled and tracked military vehicles, armored platforms and security vehicles operating in environments where laser-based threats are present.
Its compact structure allows installation in vehicle interiors without imposing significant layout constraints.
