Advanced Multi-Sensor Payload System (AMPS) - optimized for a full-range of airborne intelligence tasks, AMPS completes the cycle that starts with initial gathering of vital intelligence and ends with Bomb Damage Assessment (BDA).

Airborne Systems and Self Protection Solutions

BrightNite is a solution that enables utility helicopters to successfully perform Degraded Visual Environment (DVE) missions and provides them with piloting capabilities of attack helicopters and facilitates a new level of operational flight.

CockpitNG is based on a smart central large area display (LAD) which includes all avionic components in one suite, fully integrated with the helmet mounted and head-up displays. All of the systems' components were developed in a "Multi-touch-Screen" technology, allowing pilots to operate the aircraft in a smooth and customizable manner. This new modular solution can be tailored to multiple platforms offering full multi-mission support for attack, emergency services, training and air support missions.

Large Area Display (LAD) is a unique large area display (available in custom made sizes), dual redundant, touch-screen enabled and featuring a wide dimming range for night vision goggle compatibility at low luminance levels. All products in this line are smart integrated modular avionics (IMA) displays that can host software applications from either Elbit Systems, customer legacy software or third-party software.

Digital-JHMCS (Digital Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System) is a daily companion for thousands of F-15, F-16 and F/A-18 fighter pilots worldwide.

An advanced Helmet Mounted Display (HMD) system, based on new technology developed for commercial aviation, Digital-JHMCS is a plug-and-play system to aircraft installed with the operationally-proven JHMCS, which was launched in 2000 and is in service with over 20 air forces around the world. No aircraft installation or modification is required, only a simple upgrade of the HMD. This allows the pilot to benefit from advanced video and color capabilities in both day and night missions, using a modern, lightweight, well-balanced digital HMD system.

J-MUSIC is a high-performance Direct Infrared Counter Measure (DIRCM) system for protection of aircraft against heat seeking ground to air shoulder-fired-missiles (MANPADS).

J-MUSIC is designed for distributed installation on a wide variety of medium to large platforms, with single or multi-turret configuration. It can also be integrated with various missile warning systems (MWS).

mini-MUSIC is an advanced, flight-tested DIRCM system in a single compact and lightweight package easily installed on small and medium rotary and fixed-wing platforms. The system protects small to medium sized rotary and fixed-wing aircraft against MANPADS.

Intelligence and Electronic Warfare

PAWS is a family of IR-based (Infrared) Passive Warning Systems that provides a comprehensive, turn-key solution for airborne platforms.

The sophisticated IR Missile Warning Systems (MWS) enhance airborne platform survivability by providing advance warning of the presence of threatening missiles and by automatic management of all types of applicable countermeasures available onboard. The systems provide threat information to other EW and/or avionic systems for centralized /Human Machine Interface (HMI) management.

Air Keeper EW & SIGINT Solution for Aircraft is a highly advanced solution that provides two significantly critical capabilities in one system: intelligence gathering and Electronic Warfare (EW) defensive capacities onboard the same platform. The solution enables the aircraft to perform missions for the full range of aircraft types, such as cargo, tanker, transport and others.

All-in-Small is a complete Airborne Self-Protection Suite comprising an airborne unified self-protection system, offering a complete, lightweight and compact EW suite in a single LRU for any airborne platform.

Aircraft Training and Simulation Systems and Solutions

SkyBreaker - Unlimited Access to the Sky - is a networked multi-cockpit, mission oriented training center supporting a wide range of aircraft types. The system provides realistic simulated battlefield training using all aircraft systems and mission scenarios to enhance all levels of pilot training. The SkyBreaker facility houses a complex networked system designed to provide an entire squadron with the tools to practice modern air combat using SkyScen, a sophisticated computer generated forces (CGF) solution, in a fully integrated military setting.

Embedded Virtual Avionics (EVATM) for trainer aircraft, can be installed on basic or advanced trainer aircraft, transforming the aircraft into a virtual advanced fighter while maintaining the hourly training costs of a trainer. The EVA virtual avionics suite is designed to shorten the training gap which exists today between trainer and modern fighter aircraft. EVA is manufactured in a minimal integration configuration, thus reducing aircraft integration costs virtually to zero.
