Description

Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms play an increasingly important role in modern warfare.The goal of providing timely and actionable information to the warfighter can be greatly facilitated by the ability to simultaneously collect multiple types of sensor data.Imaging one target without losing track of another target can mean the difference between mission success and mission failure.It is also important that the ISR platform have the right features and capabilities to perform its desired function.Ideally, aircraft sensors need to operate at high altitudes and standoff ranges.Operating too low increases the risk of disruption from enemy attack or collision with other aircraft, and also generally reduces the field of regard of the aircrafts sensors.IMSARs NSP sensor family provides world class ISR capability, with both Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Moving Target Indicator (MTI) capabilities in a single pod-mounted platform suitable for Group 2-3 (e.g. Scan Eagle, Shadow) UAVs.
