The podded version of Grifo Radar

The podded version, designated Grifo-7, is designed for light attack and trainer aircraft such as the Chinese-designed K-8 jet or the Alenia-Aermacchi MB339. The pod is easily installed on underwing hardpoints and, says Selex Galileo, provides multimode performance that closely replicates that obtained from a typical nose-mounted installation.

Selex Galileo has added new modes to the long-selling Grifo fire control radar and has also designed a pod-mounted version. Angelo Aprile, the company’s head of capability in Italy, told the Military Flight Training conference in London organized by Defence IQ that more than 450 “advanced but affordable” Grifo systems have been sold worldwide. Applications include the F-5E/F, Mirage III, L-159, F-7 (Chinese-built MiG-21bis) and Sikorsky HH-60 helicopter. The most recent announced sale was last year–a second order by the Brazilian air force for its F-5 fleet.




SEASPRAY 5000e
Multi-Mode surveillance radar

The Seaspray 5000E Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) multi-mode surveillance radar provides an unrivalled surveillance capability as the primary sensor on airborne assets to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Seaspray 5000E is the lightest member of the Seaspray
AESA radar family, which also comprises the Seaspray 7000E selected for the UK Royal Navy Future Lynx, and the Seaspray 7500E selected for the United States Coast Guard HC-130H
aircraft.

Seaspray radars have been delivering a high performance surveillance capability to armed forces and paramilitary users for nearly 40 years. Seaspray 5000E employs the Seaspray AESA family
common processor, coupled with a compact state-of-the-art AESA antenna to deliver a leading edge capability covering air-to-surface and air-to-air environments. The Seaspray 5000E antenna has been developed and demonstrated in a series of helicopter and fixed wing aircraft trials. This
lightweight radar can be installed onto a wide range of manned and unmanned aircraft.

MIRACH 100/5
INTEGRATED AERIAL TARGET SYSTEM


Mirach 100/5 is the standard high-performance reusable, multi-threat target, designed and manufactured by SELEX Galileo. In use with worldwide Armed Forces to train and qualify major Weapon Systems, Mirach 100/5 delivers reliability and manoeuvrability, making it the best state-ofthe-art, multi-role, target drone system on the market.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The system is controlled by a modern Ground Control Station that allows mission planning and re-tasking, mission rehearsal and play back, operators training. A wide and flexible selection of mission payloads, installed inside the fuselage and under the wings, effectively complies with the requirements of most complex missile systems engagement scenarios for training and weapon systems test and evaluation.

Certified by the Italian Joint Forces in 1998, since its debut on the market, the Mirach 100/5 System has been in use by the Armed Forces in the UK, Italy, France, Argentina, Belgium and Denmark, and has been continuously upgraded.

The Mirach 100/5 Aerial Target System simulates most of the present-day threats and their performances, among which very-low-altitude sea skimming missions, tight formation flights and 3D manoeuvres up to instantaneous 8g sustained load factors, covering a flight envelop between 3 and 12.500 metres above sea level. The top-performing Mirach 100/5 System combines great operational flexibility (e.g. rapid adaptation to mission planning changes) with a NATO certified Mission Reliability of more than 98%.

MAIN FEATURES
• State-of-the-art High Subsonic Aerial Target System
• Routinely used by major European Armed Forces
• NATO Certified Mission Reliability >98%
• Lowest Overall Life Cycle Costs
• Simulates most present-day threats in terms of kinematics and signatures, including: Sea Skimming ASM, Fighters and strike aircrafts, Cruise missiles, Fast UAS
• Ground or sea recovery with respectively 1 or 3 hours Turn Around Time
• Customised, turn-key configurations.

The Mirach 100/5 target drone is launched using two JATO boosters, thus offering a full day/night - adverse weather capability, from fixed ground (e.g. ranges) and from mobile facilities (e.g. ships). It can be recovered on ground or at sea, with a turn around time of less than one hour for ground recovery and 3 hours for sea recovery. A fully automatic pre-flight test prevents system failures in order to increase overall mission reliability. Furthermore, an operator is not required to manually perform the check, thus optimising personnel involvement and safety.
