The XENTA-M5 radar is designed to detect and track both traditional aerial threats such as aircraft and missiles and modern low, slow and small targets including drones. The radars provide early warning and situational awareness to support effective engagement and protection of key assets.
“If you want to neutralize drones, you first need to see them,” said Weibel Scientific CEO Peter Røpke. “Our XENTA radar can track both small and large flying objects like drones, aircraft and missiles.”
“This contract is not just an order for us in Weibel; it’s a quality stamp,” Røpke said. “This shows that our technology is trusted by our national defense, and we are proud to contribute to strengthening Denmark’s defense and future readiness.”
The XENTA-M5 combines Doppler technology with advanced tracking algorithms to enable precise detection of even small drones at long range. This capability supports the protection of troops, infrastructure and civilians as air threats continue to evolve.
The radars will be developed and produced by Weibel Scientific in Allerød, with the first unit delivered in late 2027 and the remaining systems in 2028. They will be mounted on Rheinmetall all-terrain vehicles, integrated with Terma’s command-and-control systems, and funded under Denmark’s Defense Contract 2024–2033, including system integration and user training.
