Robin Radar Systems selects Schuberg Philis to strengthen mission-critical systems. Two Dutch technology leaders are partnering to scale and strengthen digital resilience and critical infrastructure. Robin Radar Systems and Schuberg Philis, the Netherlands' leading mission-critical IT partner, announces a major, long-term strategic partnership. Together, the companies will work to scale Robin Radar's operations, strengthen its IT backbone, and position the company for the next phase of its international growth, without compromising the speed, reliability and innovation that have made the company a global leader in radar technology. The world is changing rapidly. Geopolitical tensions, hybrid threats and the rise of autonomous systems are driving unprecedented demand for Robin Radar's solutions. To scale its systems and processes with this demand, while ensuring continuous availability and security, Robin Radar will leverage Schuberg Philis' proven expertise to do just this. Robin Radar Systems has built a strong reputation over two decades for delivering breakthrough radar technology, from protecting airports against bird strikes to detecting and classifying drones with exceptional precision. As global demand for defence and security solutions has surged, Robin Radar has grown at an extraordinary pace, serving governments, airports and defence organisations around the world. As its technology becomes increasingly mission-critical, the digital environment supporting it must meet the same standard of reliability. For more than two decades, Schuberg Philis has helped organisations whose continuity is essential to society keep complex IT environments secure, adaptable and continuously available. This is achieved not simply by managing technology, but by taking end-to-end responsibility for the operational continuity of mission-critical business processes. Schuberg Philis has long been the partner of choice for organisations where technology failure is not an option, from financial infrastructure to critical national systems. The partnership with Robin Radar marks a natural extension of that mission into the defence and security domain. Both companies take pride in their Dutch roots. The Netherlands has a long tradition of engineering excellence, pragmatic innovation and uncompromising quality, and this partnership embodies that spirit. Where global defence primes can take years to deliver, Robin Radar measures its production in weeks, without sacrificing the security standards and quality that defence and critical infrastructure customers demand. Schuberg Philis brings the same bias for speed, security and hands-on delivery to the IT domain. The long-term agreement covers a broad and growing scope of work. As Robin Radar expands its footprint across defence ministries, NATO partners and critical infrastructure operators, Schuberg Philis will provide the operational backbone enabling that growth. "We build radar systems that protect people, airports, borders and critical infrastructure. The impact of that work demands an IT partner that shares the same sense of responsibility. Schuberg Philis truly understands what mission-critical means. This partnership gives us the foundation to scale globally without ever compromising quality, speed or security." Siete Hamminga, CEO of Robin Radar Systems "We didn't want a partner that would slow us down. Schuberg Philis understood that immediately. They matched our pace from day one and proved their value before we even signed a contract. That's rare." Frank Roerink, CFO of Robin Radar Systems "This partnership is about far more than IT. It's about enabling an organisation to grow globally without ever compromising its identity or the quality that defines it. That's exactly what we stand for." Gerwin Schuring, CEO of Schuberg Philis "Robin Radar has built an exceptional position in a market that is becoming increasingly important for both society and national security. Their technology protects what matters most. Our role is to ensure that their digital operations are just as reliable and adaptable as the products they deliver, enabling them to stay focused on innovation and growth." Gerwin Schuring, CEO of Schuberg Philis

Robin Radar and TNO to develop airborne radar for ground surveillance and search-and-rescue. Robin Radar Systems has entered a strategic partnership with the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) to industrialise and commercialise a new multi-mode airborne radar. Designed for advanced ground imaging, search-and-rescue missions, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) for defence, security, emergency response and government users, the innovative new radar platform will be deployed as a payload aboard large unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). At a time when situational awareness in complex and degraded environments is becoming increasingly critical. A project years in the making The initiative builds on years of collaborative research and development within the Dutch defence innovation ecosystem through the Multi-function Radar Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (MRaISR) programme. Under the new partnership, Robin Radar'll lead the productisation and commercial development of the radar system, building on foundational research and system concepts developed by TNO, into an operational capability for defence, security, emergency response and government users. "Robin Radar has spent more than a decade pushing the boundaries of radar technology, and this agreement marks an exciting new chapter for the company. TNO has developed an incredibly innovative concept and we are proud to help transform that capability into an operational product. The ability to generate detailed intelligence and situational awareness from unmanned platforms, regardless of weather or visibility conditions, is becoming increasingly important across both defence and civilian applications." Siete Hamminga, CEO, Robin Radar Systems Navigating complex environments Designed to be deployed aboard large UAS, the new radar functions as a sophisticated airborne imaging sensor capable of building detailed pictures of activity on the ground and sea across large areas and in challenging operating conditions. Unlike traditional optical cameras, radar-based imaging can remain effective in darkness, adverse weather, smoke, dust, and other harsh environments where visual sensors become limited. The system incorporates multiple operational modes, including Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging, Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI), and Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR), allowing operators to detect, track, and analyse activity across complex environments while maintaining long-range situational awareness. These modes will all be processed on board, eliminating the data-transmission bottleneck that often affects such systems. "Through this partnership, we are moving beyond R&D into operational impact. By combining TNO's system expertise with Robin Radar's industrial capabilities, we accelerate the delivery of advanced airborne sensing solutions that strengthen mission effectiveness in complex environments. In this way, we also extend our contribution to the competitiveness of Dutch industry." Philip Weimar, Director Electromagnetics & Military Operations, TNO Expanding technology portfolio The partnership represents a significant expansion of its technology portfolio beyond airspace surveillance and counter-UAS applications, leveraging the company's expertise in radar engineering, manufacturing, and software development to bring a new generation of airborne sensing capabilities to market. As part of the agreement, Robin Radar'll work closely with TNO to further mature the platform, optimise its performance for deployment on unmanned aircraft, and prepare the system for future operational users.
