JETPOD
- Detection up to 340 km
- Jet carriage above 300 kt
- EO/IR beyond 50 km by day
- MIL-STD-810G
Detect. Track. Configure today, re-role tomorrow. JETPOD puts EO/IR, SAR/GMTI radar and SIGINT in one modular pod for fast-moving platforms such as fixed-wing aircraft and UAVs, delivering real-time intelligence, long-range surveillance and rapid deployability.
Mission profiles
Border and maritime ISR
Long-range radar search and EO/IR identification at jet speed over sea and border areas.
Convoy and route overwatch
Watch the route ahead and around a convoy, and pass changes to the ground in real time.
SAR cueing
Cover a large search area fast and cue rescue assets onto what the sensors find.
SIGINT escort
COMINT and RF direction finding alongside the imaging sensors on the same sortie.
Sensors and systems
Long-range EO/IR
High-performance turret for day and night imaging: visibility beyond 50 km by day and 20 km at night or in haze.
