These units are compatible with both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles, offering a dependable resource. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing and validation, adhering to industry-standard testing procedures such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
The NS1310 is a robust, compact data server and storage unit specifically designed for the challenging conditions of airborne environments.
This versatile system functions as a Network Attached Storage (NAS) unit and is equipped with a high-capacity Removable Memory Module (RMM).
The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for field and mission data tasks, such as data acquisition, processing, storage, exploitation, and distribution. These units are suitable for use on both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, adhering to standard test methods like DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
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.
The CORTEX RSR-RF (-40 or -200) stands as a digital recorder that plays a vital role in capturing and reproducing the RF analog signal received by the antenna before any processing occurs.
It’s an essential component in a Telemetry Station, ensuring the utmost availability of crucial data, particularly in cases where on-board recording is not feasible.
Data collected in-flight offers extensive post-processing flexibility. You can fine-tune various settings in the receiver, the bit synchronizer, and the decommutator to maximize the extraction of data, a feat achievable only with RF recording. Furthermore, it serves as an invaluable tool for test range qualification ahead of test flights.
COMTRACK stands as the preferred choice for over 100 trusted telemetry tracking operators.
Its track record spans various applications, from military aircraft and helicopters to commercial aircraft and even launch vehicles. COMTRACK steps in where larger, space-consuming parabolic systems may not be the best fit.
