Overview
Fighting bad guys since 1936
The TRIDON Mk2 is one of the most effective anti-aircraft systems today, out-performing any other gun of calibre 40 mm or less. It is the product of evolution brought about by nearly 90 years of experience – fighting the bad guys since 1936.
Able to combat multiple threats quickly, the TRIDON Mk2 is a high-precision, cost-effective system that is easy to deploy and simple to maintain. Its modular design allows it to adapt to changing needs and to grow with new technologies.
The system is designed with flexibility in mind and is capable of combating everything from drones and cruise missiles, to aircraft and armoured vehicles – creating security and protection for both military forces and civil infrastructure.
The TRIDON Mk2 is a modern anti-aircraft system for today’s warfare. Specialized in filling the gaps behind expensive missile systems, it meets the growing need for air-denial weapons, providing a low-cost, rapid anti-aircraft system crucial for keeping the skies clear.
For a wide range of threats
Traditional threats like combat aircraft and missiles are joined by numerous unmanned systems, enabling smaller units to conduct aerial reconnaissance, fire control and airstrikes. A modern anti-aircraft system must have the capability of handling a wide range of threats and combat situations.
Keep the sky clear
The TRIDON Mk2 is a self-propelled and remotely controlled 40 mm anti-aircraft artillery gun with an effective range against aerial and ground targets up to 12 km depending on the target, selected ammunition, sensor suite and surrounding terrain.
