The British Army's Land Environment Air Picture Provision (LEAPP) capability, developed by Lockheed Martin UK, is to be upgraded and have its in-service date extended to 2029, the company announced on 26 January.

The value of the extended contract is GBP20 million (USD27 million). No timescale for the upgrade was revealed.

The truck-mounted system provides early air-defence warning at land formation headquarters (HQ) through airspace management, surveillance, and ground-based command and control (C2). Integrated with the Saab Giraffe Agile Multi-Beam (G-AMB) 3D surveillance radar it fuses the local air picture and the recognised air picture (RAP) utilising Link 16 and other tactical datalinks (TDLs), and provides integrated weapon engagement management.

The system was recently used in a surveillance capability at the G7 2021 Summit in Cornwall and the COP 26 Summit in Glasgow, and has been deployed overseas on numerous occasions.
