BIRD Aerosystems, Beechcraft Berlin Aviation and Cassidian (an EADS Company) will present the Airborne Surveillance, Intelligence and Observation (ASIO) special mission aircraft with BIRD Aerosystems’ Multi Sensor Integration System (MSIS) at ILA Berlin 2012 Airshow. The presentation will include a “hands on” simulator which will illustrate the systems capabilities.
ASIO is a complete airborne special mission solution that enhances maritime and ground situational awareness and is based on the group’s in-depth experience in delivering and operating special mission aircraft.
ASIO is typically integrated on a King Air B350 modified by Beechcraft Berlin and installed with Cassidian airborne sensors, such asSAR/GMTI Radar, COMINT, ELINT, EOP, SPS. All sensors all integrated together by BIRD’s advanced mission management solution – MSIS.
MSIS integrates and manages the airborne sensors, performs sensor data fusion and provides the airborne and ground users with a unified real-time situational awareness picture.
ASIO brings together the group’s extensive operational experience and in-depth understanding of mission-critical requirements all of which has facilitated the design and delivery of a unique intelligence-gathering solution that can be tailored to meet the most demanding requirements of customers around the world.
Looking forward to welcome you at ILA Berlin!
From the 11th until the 16th of September 2012
