| The Obzor light signals-intelligence (SIGINT)/electronic-attack system was developed by Enterprise Plant Kamerton and Integral Scientific & Production Association, both based
in Pinsk, Belarus. The system is designed to detect, track, and jam radio communications, including mobile telephones and other systems that may be used by terrorists or
special forces. It was developed in response to requirements issued by Belarusian Armed Forces.
The Army's Obzor can detect and locate emitters working over the frequency range of 0.1-2,600 MHz, 360º around the system. Each of the system ' s three stations can locate the
emitter with an accuracy of 3º within seconds of switching from detection to localization mode. In tracking mode, the system works over the frequency range of 30-1,000 MHz at
a scan rate of 150 MHz per second, with an accuracy of within 10 Hz. It can track both stationary and moving emitters, and jamming is also possible over the frequency ranges
of 136-170 MHz and 410-450 MHz.
The basic Army version of the Obzor is mounted on Gaz 66 light cross-country trucks, but the company also offers the Obzor 1M5 version mounted on Sobol, Gazela, or UAZ-469
vehicles for use in urban or rural surveillance. Another proposed version, the Obzor 2VB-RP, could be mounted on helicopters or light fixed-wing aircraft. The lighter Obzor
1M4 version can be mounted in cars and is designed purely for police and secret services.
