FlashHawk, solution for next-generation airborne C-ESM
Successful flight-testing campaign achieved for Flashhawk
Aix-en-Provence, France - October 12th , 2021.
Avantix today announces that its “FlashHawk” COMINT/C-ESM[1] airborne solution for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) has been successfully tested and evaluated by the French Armament General Directorate (Direction générale de l’armement, DGA) which was thus able to get an overview of the performances of the integrated system – following a demanding flight test campaign.
FlashHawk is a state-of-the-art COMINT/C-ESM solution that provides an instantaneous 3D geolocation image of ground emitters from the air. FlashHawk is supporting ISR operators to get an immediate tactical situation awareness of emitter on the ground under the aircraft up to the horizon 360° around it. Combined with the existing aircraft electro-optical/infra-red sensor, it allows rapid target identification for actionable intelligence.
FlashHawk can easily be installed and deployed on various types of multi-mission airborne platforms such as UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicle : fixed wing and vertical takeoff and landing) balloons, airplanes and helicopters. The solution combines mission information system, processing unit and antenna – all qualified for airborne application.
