THE POWER
behind the power.
Since 2009, Enercon has proudly served as the driving force behind the Missile Defense Agency’s THAAD-PPU (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense – Prime Power Unit). Our highly mobile power systems deliver critical primary power to the AN/TPY-2 Army Navy/Transportable Radar Surveillance, enabling the detection, tracking, and discrimination of incoming ballistic missile threats.
With flawless performance across all classes of ballistic missiles — including during the January 2022 defense of UAE allied forces — the THAAD-PPU and AN/TPY-2 continue to set the standard for tactical resilience. Designed for rapid deployment by C-5 or larger aircraft, the THAAD-PPU ensures reliable, assured power access for warfighters operating in contested and austere environments.
Enercon has successfully delivered 28 PPU systems to military operations worldwide, and our team remains committed to delivering clean, safe, and reliable power solutions wherever they are needed most.
