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.
With its compact, rugged design, this embedded phased array auto-tracking antenna excels at providing reliable telemetry reception across L, S, or C-bands, covering the entire sky up to 93 miles away. Its intelligent integration combines high-elevation reception with long-range capabilities, all within a protective radome.
Additionally, it enables dual-band installations to support systems operating in both current and future frequency ranges. When it comes to trust, simplicity, and performance, COMTRACK takes the lead.

Sensors acquisition and recording for troubleshooting is a cumbersome process in a fully furnished or operational aircraft, especially when time and low footprint are key drivers.
This is no more the case with Safran new solution µMA:
- its cylindrical form factor allows easy installation by just requiring a standard clamp used to mount tubes
- its battery power supply and its wireless connectivity removes the need of installing any harness in the aircraft.
All these capabilities are available while providing high measuring performance and harsh environment ruggedized in line with Safran standard solutions.

XONOS enabling high data volume downlink between satellite & ground station. It is our latest state-of-the-art qualified COTS based design perfectly adapted to NewSpace programs, where cost effectiveness, performances and reliability are success key factors.

Safran’s SEEING™ 130 Wide includes a unique medium focal length catadioptric optics, limited by diffraction only and with ultra-low distortion, offering perfect imaging over 35 mm full-frame image format. It is fitted with a 10megapixel sensor.
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.

Our modular data acquisition unit, the XMA-ROTOR, brings cutting-edge module technology to the specialized mechanical housing designed for rotor head instrumentation.
Say goodbye to outdated slip ring technology – the XMA-ROTOR revolutionizes the game by offering a completely wireless and contactless connection between the rotor and the stator.
Power is transmitted through inductive coupling, while data, health monitoring info, configuration data, and synchronization signals are transferred over a bi-directional radio link.

The VS1410 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (3.75” x 5.75” x 7.36” / 6.4 lb), for recording on a Removable Memory Module (RMM).
Recorded data can be replayed in a standard PC/Windows® environment, using specific or COTS mission debrief solutions for post mission analysis. In addition, typically for ISR applications, data can be replayed while recording on board.
The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for acquiring, processing, storing, exploiting, and disseminating field and mission data.
These units are suitable for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, adhering to standard test methods such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
