The RX-1 excels in test range scenarios, offering cutting-edge features to ensure maximum data accessibility. Trust the RX-1 for top-tier telemetry reception in challenging conditions.

The SPARTE 700 series is a top-tier dual-axis antenna that boasts dish sizes ranging from 20 to 24 feet.

Its high gain and large aperture make it the ideal choice for tracking any flying target, such as aircraft of launch vehicle. This antenna series features a rock-solid design that guarantees peak performance under all conditions: an aluminum alloy reflector that enhances surface precision, SCM tracking feeds for trustworthy and accurate tracking, and dual-drive motors for redundancy and backlash prevention.

Furthermore, for applications that demand the utmost in performance, the SPARTE 700 series is also available in skid-mounted and trailer transportable and 3-axis gyro-stabilized versions.

With its compact and rugged design, CMA is a perfect fit for data acquisitions in challenging environments and tight spaces.

CMA boasts the smallest size per channel, providing versatile acquisition modules to customize instrumentation for specific missile or New Space use cases. These acquisition modules enable software configuration in the field for each channel type.

Offering on-board processing, recording, hardware customization, GPS localization, and a built-in transmitter, CMA allows for an all-in-one-box solution.

CMA delivers advanced signal and acquisition conditioning, bus monitoring, recording, and transmission, all while reducing integration time, cost, and risk.

SEEING™ 130 Wide enables high Signal to Noise Ratio for multispectral (MS), hyperspectral (HS) and low light level imaging. SEEING™ 130 Wide includes a spectral filter with 23 bands covering Blue, Green, Red, Near InfraRed and Red Edge MS, for a broad spectral range between 475 and 900nm. SEEING™ 130 Wide has a large Field of View of 6.3° x 4.3° / 54 x 36 km2 from a 500km/310 miles orbit.

In addition to its a thermal design within a robust structure, SEEING™ 130 Wide has a low SWaP, saving launch and operational costs.

The PPS®1350 Hall Effet plasma thruster draws on Safran’s long experience with electric propulsion. It is designed for orbital transfer, station keeping and deorbiting satellites and other spacecraft. In particular, the PPS 1350 was the primary engine on ESA’s lunar probe, Smart-1, launched in 2003 by an Ariane 5 rocket. This mission was completed in September 2006.

The SPARTE 1300 series antenna is a tried-and-tested solution designed for mission-critical applications where reliable telemetry reception is essential. This antenna excels at accurately tracking flying targets, such as aircraft or space launch vehicles, even over long distances, thanks to its high-gain, large-aperture design.

Built with a robust and sturdy construction, the SPARTE 1300 series guarantees optimal performance in any scenario. It features an aluminum-alloy reflector for enhanced surface accuracy, SCM tracking feeds for dependable and precise tracking, and quad-drive motors for redundancy and no-backlash operation.

The MDR-GT / GTS is the ultra-fast on-board flight test (16 Gbps) instrumentation solution. The MDR family is technically based on a common mainframe with many high-end built-in interfaces and functions.
