Advanced Sensor Technologies

Our Advanced Sensor Technologies segment provides world-class cryogenically cooled and uncooled sensor technologies, laser systems, electronic warfare systems, and intelligence and surveillance solutions to the U.S. military and intelligence community customers. Our products and solutions have significant capabilities and core technologies to meet the warfighters’ needs for heightened battlefield awareness and longer range sensing. Our infrared focal plane array foundry produces cooled and uncooled sensors, with a robust portfolio of intellectual property protecting key technology differentiators that set us apart. For example, our breakthrough Quantum Cascade Laser technology is been used both by defense and biopharma customers to detect cancer in one application and protect helicopters in another.

Solutions

Ground Vehicle Sensors

Ground Vehicle SensorsOur market-leading products include third-generation infrared sensors and fused sensing systems for threat detection, situational awareness, targeting and vehicle protection. We are a leading provider of ground vehicle sighting and third-generation infrared imaging systems, uncooled focal plane arrays for the military, and an industry leader in “brownout” sensor solutions that can see through blowing sand.

 

Soldier Sensing

Soldier LethalityOur full complement of soldier systems includes next-generation sensors, targeting systems, and optics to improve infantry combat effectiveness.  We produce innovative EO/IR systems for soldiers, including legacy and next-generation thermal weapons sights. Our uncooled sensor technology also positions us well to support the future of soldier goggle systems.

 

Electronic Warfare & Cyber

EW and CyberOur state-of-the-art technology and experience in EW and cyber systems provide our customers with state-of-the-art integrated capabilities for multi-domain operations to supplement kinetic warfare. Our mounted and dismounted EW systems and intelligence solutions across a broad range of platforms can exploit enemy transmissions. Our cyber-based multi-domain operations technology meets growing defense priorities.

 

Aircraft Survivability

Aircraft SurvivabilityOur quantum cascade laser technology and advanced two-color infrared sensors protect helicopters from missile attacks. The integration of these two state-of-the-art technologies into a single solution to save the lives of aviators and troops inside rotary-winged aircraft is demonstrative of the advanced skills of our engineers and researchers.

 

Air Combat Training Systems

Air Combat Training SystemsOur aircraft training systems are world renowned and were selected for the fifth-generation international Joint Strike Fighter program. Our aircraft training pods are used by pilots in the U.S. and among allied air combat teams to prepare for the complicated missions ahead.
