Integrated Surveillance and Defense (ISD) has selected UTC Aerospace Systems’ Cloud Cap Technology TASE 400 imaging payloads to support the US Navy’s intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) programme.
The TASE 400, which will support global combat missions, integrates an image processing system that is capable of target tracking, scene steering and electronic image stabilisation.
ISD operations vice-president Steve Pierce said: "The low SWaP (size, weight and power) payload and advanced optics of the Cloud Cap TASE 400 was a critical requirement in providing the US Navy with a turnkey ISR platform."
The new system includes a GPS / INS, fibre optic gyro (FOG) stabilisation, common control and operator interface, and ViewPoint gimbal software with complete control of TASE gimbals.
