Sagem is teaming up with fellow Safran group company Morpho, a security
specialist, to spotlight its Eurosatory 2012 offering in the following
areas: air-land combat, mounted and dismounted combat, drone systems,
high-performance infrared imagers, guidance, support, missile seekers,
combat vehicle modernization, optronics for defense systems and homeland
security.
Sagem is unveiling the following products at Eurosatory 2012:
JIM-UC. The new uncooled (UC) version of Sagem's multifunction infrared
binoculars is based on an uncooled infrared sensor. Designed to meet the
needs of front-line units, it combines day/night vision, rangefinding,
laser pointer, compass, GPS and data transmission in a single tactical
package. Light and ergonomically designed, JIM-UC incorporates the lessons
learned from JIM family products already deployed in theaters of operation.
A total of 8,000 JIM binoculars are now in service or on order, including
6,500 in France.
Sword Light and Sword Medium. These two scopes were developed around an
uncooled infrared sensor. They are designed to meet the modern warfighter's
needs, through its compact shape, light weight, ease of use and accurate
night firing over the rifle's entire range. Already in production since
early this year, Sword Light and Sword Medium have been tested on the
assault rifles M4, IA2, HK416 and AK-47, and the marksman rifles HK-417
and Dragunov.
Multifunction Euroflir Console. A workstation that maximizes the capabilities
of Sagem's Euroflir gyrostabilized optronic pod, by integrating high-performance
mapping control, AIS marine transponder receiver and distress beacon detector.
It also offers a mission planning and replay function, which can also
be used for training exercises. This system allows aircraft to be used
on both military and homeland security missions, for example.
Lukeos, vehicle driving aid and local vision. A multi-sensor system with
uncooled infrared detectors, Lukeos gives drivers high-quality panoramic
vision, and gives the crew an image of their immediate surroundings, to
ensure self defense day or night, even in bad weather. The system's design
also means that it satisfies the "see and avoid" function for
helicopters and drones, while providing navigation aid and protection
for merchant ships.
Epsilon. A new family of land navigators. Epsilon is designed to cover
all tactical applications, from logistic to observation vehicles, as well
as telecommunications via "satcom on the move". By incoporating
advanced hemispherical resonator gyro technologies, these navigators are
extremely compact and offer exceptional reliability.
Sterna™. A compact precision target location system, Sterna helps
forward observers accurately locate ground targets and designate them
for land and air supports. Marking a breakthrough over existing technologies,
Sterna features a patented North Seeker from Sagem. Sterna is a "high
first round accuracy" system that can be used in conjunction with
multifunction binoculars from Sagem or Vectronix AG (JIM, Mosquito, Vector).
Sterna was developed by Vectronix AG, the Swiss subsidiary of Sagem.
