DCIR System
Dual-colour infrared missile warning systemThe challenge
Your personnel in the field must fulfil their mission while they are exposed to an unknown environment of incoming threats. Therefore, to protect your crew advanced warning of these threats is required.
The situation calls for multiple capabilities including a high probability of detection, avoidance of false alarms, monitoring of threats as they evolve as well as their points of origin, maximum clarity in the operational situation and prevention of workload saturation.
The missiles targeting your forces and platforms give you little time to react and respond, and the support typically available for countermeasure selection is suboptimal.
Furthermore, to operate “silence” the warning system that protects your forces must operate passively – with no detectable ‘emissions’.
Our solution
Meet DCIR System – the Dual-colour infrared missile warning system. When deployed, it is up to the challenges airborne crews face, using the two-colour infrared technology in the missile warner system the next level of warning performance is reached. DCIR System has a central computer unit with up to 7 next-generation infrared sensors that deliver highest confidence in the probability of warning and extended detection ranges by reducing the false alarms.
Its capabilities include detection and localisation of hostile fire; complete, spherical 360° coverage; and real-time panoramic view Infra-Red images.
The harshest conditions of fighter platforms as a baseline and the optimized SWAP (Size, Weight and Power), qualifies AMPIRS to be deployed in any platform and under any conditions.
Features and benefits
Features
- Passive missile-approach warning system (PMAWS)
- Hostile fire indication and localisation (HFI HFL)
- 360° spherical coverage
- Full data-recording and downloading capability
- Lowest-in-class rate of false alarms
- Platform agnostic
- Suitable for use in harshest conditions
- AI/smart technology using algorithms optimised by years of use
- ISTAR/ IRST capability support
Benefits
- No/low probability of detection by the enemy “silent operation”
- Customisation for mission profiles and evolving threats -> fewer false alarms -> higher detection capability -> reduced workload -> reduced ‘emissions’ -> stress level optimised
- High detection ranges & fast processing times in the system gives crews more time to react
- Increased situational awareness
- Data provision and recording for a network-centric environment
- Secure mission success in contested environments -> strategic wins and low losses in the field -> access to other environments previously beyond reach
