A joint effort by Creomagic Ltd. and RT LTA Systems Ltd. has resulted in a versatile integrated system for persistent aerial intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. The SkyCnet system (see image above) combines RT’s aerostat surveillance capabilities with Creomagic's skills for secure tactical communications. The system was recently unveiled in early May at the 2025 DEFEA Exposition in Athens, Greece.
The SkyCnet system is designed to deliver critical real-time visual intelligence in the most challenging operating environments, maintaining secure communications links with operators. Well-suited for homeland security, law enforcement, and national border patrols, the ISR system enables reliable data flow for both civilian and military applications.
The system provides 360-degree visual coverage across diverse terrains, including over land and sea and in beyond line-of-sight (LOS) situations, with secure communications even in urban areas provided by Creomagic’s mobile ad hoc network (MANET) communications technologies. It can be deployed within 20 minutes by a two-person crew to gather and transfer visual and mapping data required for critical missions.
Regarding the teamwork, Alex Shapochnic, CEO of Creomagic, said, “SkyCnet was developed to precisely meet the critical communication demands of tactical forces. By combining Creomagic's communications expertise with RT's best-in-class, persistent ISR, SkyCnet acts as a significant force multiplier for contemporary tactical operations.”
RT’s CEO, Rami Shmueli, added, “The integration of our technologies has resulted in a powerful solution that enhances situational awareness, enables rapid response, and ensures connectivity in even the most challenging environments.”
