BIRD’s AMPS Airborne Missile Protection System provides the most enhanced protection for military and civilian aircraft against the growing threat of ground-to-air missiles (MANPADS). The system is designed to automatically detect, verify, and foil SAM attacks through the effective use of countermeasure decoys (Flares and Chaff) and by Directional Infrared Countermeasures (DIRCM) that jam the missile’s IR seeker and protects the aircraft.

AeroShield-M (Mini) is an all-in-one Mini Pod solution for aircraft protection. Integrating BIRD’s AMPS in a compact all-in-one pod, AeroShield-M ensures the highest aircraft survivability uniquely combining DIRCM and Flares protection and ensuring the highest effectiveness against the most advanced missile threats. The AeroShield-M is easily installed and can be simply transferred between different platforms in order to support high operational availability.

Ronen Factor, Co-CEO and Founder at BIRD Aerosystems: “The Falcon 7X is a very popular VIP and military platform, and we are pleased to complete this project and equip this leading platform with BIRD Aerosystems’ airborne missile protection system.”
