HENSOLDT has been pursuing innovative ideas which translate into technologies for the protection of forces across the globe and into a successful business for over 125 years. The company is present in Germany, France, South Africa and UK and having several global footprints including India.

The Indian Armed Forces have been undergoing rapid technological transformation to meet the ever expanding need of air superiority. HENSOLDT Group reaffirms its commitment to support the Indian Armed Forces by offering a state-of-the-art ‘Make-in-India’ detect and protect sensors suite to improve operational effectiveness and survivability of Indian Airborne platforms.

HENSOLDT Group now offers Integrated Airborne Solution (IAS) suites to improve the mission effectiveness and survivability of airborne assets. We call this approach as “1+1=3”! The IAS suite is realized using our premium sensors i.e. Airborne Missile Protection suite (AMPS), Maritime Patrol Radar (PrecISR 1000), Electro Optical Gimbal (ARGOS II), Datalink (Lygarion), IFF Transponder (LTR400), ELINT (Kalaetron Integral), Data recorder (LCR), Situational Awareness & DVE Solutions and Mission Management System.

 

The IAS suite offers enhanced operational capabilities by exploiting the best out of each sensor to deliver the mission success to the End-User. Furthermore, IAS is guaranteed to work together efficiently and flawlessly, thus taking away most of the system integration risks before being integrated into the platform.
