“TARGET” - Advanced Electronic Intelligence Systems

LLC “Scientific and Manufacturing Complex Design Bureau TARGET” (Kyiv, Ukraine) is a leading developer and manufacturer of next-generation passive electronic intelligence (ELINT) systems.

Our solutions are on par with the world’s best and, in many respects, outperform foreign-made counterparts in both technical specifications and functionality.

Cutting-Edge Expertise and Proven Technologies

The design and development of TARGET systems are carried out in close cooperation with the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and leading national research institutions.

Ukraine remains one of the few countries worldwide that has fully mastered the technologies required for producing such sophisticated intelligence equipment.

Continuing the Legacy - Beyond “KOLCHUGA”

Building on the proud traditions and extensive experience of Ukraine’s defense industry, TARGET has created a new generation of passive surveillance systems.

Our solutions continue the legacy of the world-famous “KOLCHUGA” ELINT station inheriting its best qualities while offering enhanced performance, greater range, and expanded functionality.

Field-Proven Solutions

Our new product, the “KOLCHUGA - MK” electronic intelligence station, has successfully passed state evaluation tests, has been officially adopted into service, and today is performing combat missions on the most challenging frontlines.

The system includes a central long-range ELINT post (based on “KOLCHUGA-M”) and three advanced side stations for continuous airspace monitoring.
