The Swiss Army's Tactical Reconnaissance System (TASYS) will be equipped with a command and control system that will improve target acquisition, prioritization and data dissemination capabilities and enable the generation of a common picture of the situation. This is intended to facilitate rapid decision-making and effective use. Elbit, which supplies the C-2 systems, has now announced the signing of a corresponding contract with the Swiss Federal Office for Defense Procurement armasuisse with a volume of 13.8 million euros.

TASYS is implemented on the basis of the Eagle V 6×6, the delivery of which armasuisse ordered in December 2019. General Dynamics European Landsystems-Mowag (GDELS) supplies 100 Eagle V as a carrier platform for TASYS. The start of production is this year. Induction into the troops is planned for the period 2023 to the end of 2025.
