Breń-2 is a ground station for reconnaissance of microwave signals,[1] developed by the Industrial Telecommunications Institute (currently PIT-Radwar), built on an armoured vehicle based on the Tatra 815 chassis.

Development

[edit]

In 1993, the Industrial Telecommunications Institute, together with the Radiolocation Institute of the Military University of Technology, began developing modern electronic radio reconnaissance systems. The result was the implementation of the Breń-2 system (for Polish Land Forces) and the Breń-R / Srokosz (for the Navy) into armament. They became the basis for the development of the Gunica system for the Air Force.[2]

Variants

[edit]

In the Navy, the system is installed on warships or on Srokosz reconnaissance containers. It is used to detect, determine the direction and identify sources of radar emissions.[3][4]

Specifications
