EUROFLIR 610 for European MALE RPAS

Safran teams up with Hensoldt and Mades for Europe’s future MALE drone

 

Safran Electronics & Defense, Hensoldt Optronics and Mades signed collaboration agreements for EUROFLIR 610, a high-performance multispectral electro-optical targeting and observation system proposed for the European MALE RPAS (Medium Altitude Long Endurance – Remotely Piloted Aircraft System).

Drawing on its long experience as a lead partner in European programs, Safran is coordinating this ambitious project with Hensoldt, from Germany and Mades, from Spain, both European leaders in their respective areas of expertise. The three companies will put together their technological and organizational skills to develop and manufacture an innovative system that is key on the decisionmaking chain of MALE RPAS, an important factor in ensuring Europe’s sovereignty.

EUROFLIR 610 was being unveiled at the Paris Air Show 2019. It will reflect the state-of-the-art in electro-optical systems worldwide, calling on advanced technologies developed in Europe. Based on EUROFLIR 410 New Generation, but significantly larger, EUROFLIR 610 will offer performances encompassing the needs of the European MALE RPAS. This new-generation multispectral observation and targeting system will feature very-high-performance line-of-sight stabilisation to ensure ultra-long-range capability and high-precision target geolocation.

The partnership between Safran, Hensoldt and Mades provides the foundations for a solid cooperation between three of the most renowned manufacturers in Europe, allowing to offer to the armed forces a new-generation of IR electro-optical system carrying on the successful Euroflir product family,” said Martin Sion, Chief Executive Officer of Safran Electronics & Defense.
