New partnership to strengthen regional defence capabilities
24 August 2023
South Australian-based Electronic Warfare (EW) company, Asension, has signed a distribution agreement with Alaris Antennas, a global pioneer in antenna solutions for EW spectrum monitoring and communications.
The partnership will see Asension become the company’s supplier for Australia and New Zealand, strengthening the region’s defence capabilities. It will also expand Asension’s product range, leveraging Alaris Antennas’ proven innovations to cater to diverse environmental and technical demands.
Asension Sales Manager Vic Bergamin said the collaboration represents a convergence of two stalwarts in the EW domain.
“Alaris Antennas’ expertise in designing and testing antenna solutions, combined with Asension’s dedication to cutting-edge technology, heralds a new chapter in the region’s electronic warfare capabilities,” he said.
“With the technological leaps we’ve witnessed, especially in communications, EW and microwave systems coupled with AI-driven data processing, it’s imperative for us to join forces with global leaders like Alaris. Their depth in antenna solutions will empower us to provide more comprehensive offerings, further bridging the gap between raw information and actionable knowledge.”
While Asension’s primary focus remains on supporting Australia’s Defence sector, Mr Bergamin said it also recognised the importance of diversifying its portfolio.
“Our vision is not confined to domestic borders. We’re positioning ourselves for exports to the UK, USA, and other pivotal markets.”
