HENSOLDT to strengthen CAE Aviation surveillance fleet with high-performance radar

Sensor solutions specialist HENSOLDT will supply another multi-mission surveillance radar PrecISR to one of the biggest airborne surveillance providers, CAE Aviation, Luxembourg. CAE Aviation, which operates a large fleet of surveillance aircraft, has awarded HENSOLDT with a contract to deliver another PrecISR 1000. This is the second order, after HENSOLDT having delivered the first PrecISR in 2021. PrecISR radars are currently operated by experienced ISR operators from CAE Aviation in challenging areas of operations for various types of missions and for very demanding end-users. PrecISR offers impressive Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) / Ground Moving Target Indicator (GMTI) capabilities, enabling its operators to detect and track, in real time, a very large diversity of small moving targets of interest (troops, convoys, suspicious vehicles, etc.). PrecISR technology ensures a reliable and accurate surveillance of static and moving threats, despite adverse weather conditions which might obstruct the EO/IR sensor results. “We feel really proud that CAE Aviation keeps investing in new ISR capabilities by maintaining its trust in our plug-and-play high performance radar,” said Pierre Marquis, Sales Director Airborne ISR Radars at HENSOLDT. “The versatility of the Hensoldt PrecISR 1000 radar allows us to meet the needs of our most demanding customers, regardless of the mission profiles we perform,” said David Attali, CEO at CAE Aviation. PrecISR is the right solution for an operational and battle proven multi-mission radar system. Because of its compact design, the airborne platform integration of PrecISR is simplified significantly compared to other radars. The superior performance of PrecISR  enables airborne operators to accomplish large area surveillance in one flight pass and get top-notched results in real time up to 370km range. Even in the most difficult environmental conditions and sea states, PrecISR operators will take advantage of an unrivalled level of situational awareness with significant flight cost savings.
