 GIDS Shahpar Unmanned Aerial Vehicle at IDEAS 2014 |
|||||
The
Shahpar is a medium range tactical UAV system capable of conducting round
the clock surveillance providing its user with imagery that is reliable,
real time, accurate and consistent. The aircraft accomodates diverse mission
profiles and offers flexible payload configurations, allowing it to serve
in similar mission capacities to much more expensive systems. Shahpar
adresses immediate and future tactical surveillance requirements of its
users with proven performance and multi-mission capability. Other features
include accurate lateral, longitudinal trajectory control, missions planing,
management and control, geo referencing and geo pointing for terrestrial
targets. Its max operating altitude is 5,000m and the system can fly at
a 150kph cruise speed, in a data link range of 250km. |

 GIDS Uqab Unmanned Aerial Vehicle at IDEAS 2014 |
|||||
The
Uqab UAV system has been in use with the Pakistan Army since 2007 and
the Pakistan Navy since 2011 as a base line surveillance tactical UAV
system. It has completed over 500 sorties compiling 1,500 flight hours
to date. The basic structural design of Uqab utilizes low cost composite
materials significantly contributing to its low maintenance costs. A modular
design enables it to be deployed quickly using semi prepared landing strips.
Uqab has all the features of a modern tactical UAV including day and night
surveillance capabilities, video tracking, target lock on, autonmous mission
execution and mission planning facilities. Uqab can fly at max. speed
of 150km/h, has a height ceiling of 3,000m and a range of max. 50km. |

 GIDS Scout Unmanned Aerial Vehicle at IDEAS 2014 |
|||||
The
Scout is a mini UAV system which is designed for portability and quick
over the hill surveillance missions. It is modular, easy to deploy and
can be carried by a single person. Scout is battery powered, capable of
complete autonomous flight and carries an electro-optical payload for
day and night time surveillance/reconaissance. Scout can fly in autonomous,
semi-autonomous and manual modes. GPS based tracking allows waypoint navigation,
with over 1,000 waypoints that can be altered during flight and in real
time. Scout mini UAV carries either an electro-optical (day) camera, with
an optical zoom of up to 26x/10x or infra-red (night) camera depending
on the mission requirement. Both camera are mounted on a pan and tilt
mechanism. The Scout has a max. range of 10km, can fly at max. speed of
60km/h and has a height ceiling of 1,500ft. |

GIDS Air Sentry
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle at IDEAS 2014 |
|||||
Finally,
the Sentry is a man-portable autonomous aerial reconaissance vehicle,
specially designed for field soldiers. The system is based on on-man crew.
It is a noiseless surveillance system which can remain deep inside ennemy
territory for hours completely undetected by radar, IR sensors and human
observation. It provides real time information to soldiers and commanders
during operation on handheld display units with long endurance batteries.
Hours of video can be saved and replayed by the soldiers in the field.
