1 Armoured Vehicle Situational Awareness Building ISR Capability FMV Sensorsymposium 13 September 2012 Anders GM Dahlberg Business Development Manager Land Systems

2 Yesterday s battlefield Spy the enemy from afar Page 2

3 Today s battlefield What is happening up close? Allies Civilians Irregular combatants Situational awareness! Page 3

4 FLIR Systems Sensor supplier Supply various sensors to: System integrators Integrate into existing BMS or monitors AGA/Bofors Thermal Imager for S-Tank Vehicle OEMs Various tracked and wheeled vehicles Page 4

5 Layered approach Long Range Reconnaissance Situational Awareness Safety Medium Range Surveillance Page 5

6 Situational awareness today Driver Glass vision blocks day only, limited field of view I2 DVE limited performance, limited field of view Commander Glass vision blocks day only, limited field of view Sight (panoramic) long range, poor close coverage Gunner Optical sight day only, long range Thermal imager long range, poor close coverage Troops Basically nothing... Page 6

7 Available technologies Direct optics Day only, hull penetrating, not distributable I 2 Direct optics Sensitive to blinding, hull penetrating, not distributable TV / I 2 CCD Low cost, distributable, non penetrating, limited performance at night or sensitive to blinding Thermal imaging Has been expensive and bulky not anymore! Distributable, non penetrating, works day and night, see through smoke / obscurants Page 7

8 Issues and constraints 360 vision 24/7 Close to vehicle Cluttered external vehicle surfaces Turret / Weapon station Hatches Add-on protection Cargo Limited internal space Particularly for driver/commander Upgrade of older vehicles difficult Adding displays difficult Page 8

9 Armoured Vehicle Situational Awareness DV55/SA90 Camera Series Uncooled VOx Detector 640x480 pixels Horiz. FoV 55 or 90 Field replaceable windows Fix focus Controls: Polarity Calibration DDE ROI Options Motorized shutter with cleaning function CCDTV/LLTV Option Page 9

10 WISENT II Armoured Engineer Vehicle SA90DS mounted on P/ T for driving/ work 2 x SA90 for situa0onal awareness (safety) DV55DS mounted on P/ T for driving/ work Page 10

11 Medium Range Surveillance RWS Sensors Readily available Full 360 IR / TV / LRF Sensor upgrade for longer range? May be seen as threatening Commander s Sight Legacy system difficult to upgrade Not always 360 Dedicated Surveillance System Independent 360 capability Non-threatening Hand-off to gunner possible Page 11

12 Long Range Reconnaissance Stabilised panoramic sensor on mast Page coverage km > 5 km Target Geolocation IR/CCD sensors Target designation Target tracking Blending / fusion

13 Ranger HRC MS Page 13 Long range thermal imager 640 x 480 Mid Wave IR 12X Continuous Zoom HRC-E: 25-2 HRC-S: 15-1,2 HRC-U: 9-0,75 HRC-X: 6,3 0, x 720 Mid Wave IR 22X Continuous Zoom HDC: 30-1,4 1-4X continuous e-zoom Auto Focus Vehicle Detection at > 20 km STACE Image Enhancement Daylight TV Camera Up to 60X zoom Different camera options LRF, GPS, DMC Programmable Scan Auto Tracker Electronic image stabilisation Launched June 2012 Ranger HDC 1280 x 720 Mid Wave IR 22X Continuous Zoom WFOV: 30 x 17 NFOV: 1,4 x 0,8 16X Continuous e-zoom

14 Display Challenges Driver Very limited space Full control over driving/ reversing camera Relaxed view needed? Commander / other operators Limited space Display many sensors Continuous 360 vs detail Integration with BMS Page 14

15 Conclusions Thermal imaging and EO sensors enable /7 SitAw in all types of armoured vehicles Careful planning of sensor selection and placement is required for minimal dead zones and maximum coverage Careful planning of display solution is required to maximise SitAw in constricted space of armoured vehicles There is no one fits all solution Transmission of imagery and data to other users is possible with integration into BMS and Comms networks Page 15
