IDE and IAI Develop Hybrid Energy & Climate Control System for Barak MX

Defense News ,Israel :- Intracom Defense (IDE) has teamed up with Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) to create something groundbreaking: an advanced Hybrid Energy & Climate Control System (HECCS) for the BARAK MX missile defense system. This system will make sure the BARAK MX is ready to defend against air and missile threats.

The HECCS is designed to be a flexible energy solution. It can work with different setups of launchers and other parts of the BARAK MX missile defense system. This means it can fit into various configurations without any trouble.

This partnership highlights IDE's reputation for cutting-edge technology. They've been investing a lot in developing new hybrid power solutions for defense needs. These solutions tackle the problems that traditional power systems face.

The development of this system will happen at IDE’s research and development center in Athens, Greece. Over 200 highly skilled engineers will be working on it. They plan to have a prototype ready by the end of 2024.

The HECCS is just one part of a larger family of advanced hybrid power solutions called HEPS. These solutions include things like Hybrid Generators, Energy Storage Units, and Vehicle Hybrid Auxiliary Power Systems. They're designed for various military applications, including powering radar systems, command centers, and armored vehicles.

Overall, these new power solutions offer a tactical edge, better reliability, and cost savings. They also take environmental concerns into account. In today's high-tech battlespace, having reliable and efficient power systems is crucial.
