The first step toward armed helicopters The Bomb Rack Unit (BRU) is a device installed on a helicopter’s Stub-wing to mount various armaments such as rocket launchers and air-to-ground missiles, and it consists of a Pylon Unit and a Bomb Rack Unit. CTLA’s Bomb Rack Unit is equipped with a Boresight function that allows vertical (up/down) and horizontal (left/right) angle adjustments, and a solenoid-actuated free-fall weapon release (Jettison) method is applied. CTLA’s Bomb Rack Unit has passed the system tests for the Light Armed Helicopter (LAH) and received suitability certification, and it is currently in mass production.

The DRU-H-R has growth capacity to add an embedded Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) GPS with M-code capability. It can also be configured to function in unmanned, rotational and shipboard environments. The DRU-H-R is an advanced precision navigation system that provides accurate vehicle position and attitude data. This unit replaced the DRU-H on Paladin and Firefinder, both playing critical roles in supporting U.S. ground forces in all phases of active combat operations. The EMCORE DRU-H-R design upgraded system performance by using high accuracy, combat-proven inertial sensors currently fielded on the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS), High-Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), and Improved Position and Azimuth Determining System (IPADS). The DRU-H-R delivers precisely what the Army of tomorrow needs — a sustainable, affordable system designed to remain operationally effective well into the future.

PELICAN-D LW is a 640x512 elements, 15μm pitch, Type-2 SuperLattice (T2SL) technology based 2D Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) digital IDCA. The new ROIC outputs digital signal, similarly to SCD’s previous digital detectors: Sebastian-320, Sebastian-480, Sebastian-640, Pelican-D, Hercules, and Blackbird. Pelican-D LW is available in the same configurations as the standard (MW) Pelican-D, with a large variety of cold shield apertures and cooler types. The proximity board provides the FPA timing and sensitive power supplies. Camera-Link interface highly simplifies the integration of the detector to the system.

The Pseudo-GNSS system is designed with tightly integrated firmware and hardware. The firmware generates PRN signals based on GNSS orbital data, modulates them to resemble real GNSS signals, and ensures time synchronization in a Master-Slave structure. A user-friendly GUI software enables easy device control. The hardware consists of a power unit, signal transmission unit, and communication unit. The power unit ensures stable supply through low-noise design, while the transmission unit radiates GNSS-like signals indoors. The communication unit supports Wi-Fi and wired connections for synchronization and control across multiple devices, with compatibility for smartphones and tablets to display positioning results.

The device consists of a power supply, dedicated Iridium and GNSS antenna, BLE, three configurable inputs/outputs, RS232, and CANbus in an environmentally sealed enclosure. Includes an Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD) modem that allows remote devices to send and receive satellite messages from anywhere in the world.

Patria OPTIME covers a broad range of services and solutions impacting the fleet availability, such as fleet maintenance, upcoming modification projects and needed integrations in the later stages of the lifecycle as well as supply chain management and training services. Patria OPTIME is a modular service model that is always tailored to the customer needs and requirements, and it is set up in phases together with the customer. Patria OPTIME combines top-notch engineering expertise with efficient data utilization in a unique way for the sustainment of military equipment. There is no comparable, comprehensive, manufacturer-independent and data-driven solution that can be deployed in all operating environments available from other market actors. It is a data-driven concept, which ensures the performance and cost-effective operation of the fleet. In the centre of the concept is data collection from the fleet usage and maintenance. Even during a crisis, the customer can count on Patria’s support. Patria’s service covers the entire lifecycle of the fleets The lifecycle for military fleets is typically decades-long – and thus, in addition to ordinary maintenance, repairs and overhauls, the fleets must undergo major upgrades, repairs and system/structural modifications during the lifecycle to fulfil required capabilities. Patria has strong experience and expertise in all these demanding activities – for land vehicles, aircraft and marine vessels. Patria OPTIME also covers the management of fleet MRO supply chains, as required by the customer. Data analysis makes it possible to anticipate the future need for spare parts and to optimally plan the deliveries and storage of these parts. The concept of operations of high-performance assets is also essential part of effective system usage. Patria can support this with years of experience in data collection from a range of fleets as part of mission support services. This brings exclusive offering for Patria’s training services. For instance, in Finland, Patria is responsible for elementary and basic pilot training for the Air Force, Army and Border Guard and provides training services for maintenance staff. Patria OPTIME is set up according to the customer’s requirements The specification of the Patria OPTIME solution begins with an assessment of the current state of the customer’s operating environment, equipment and sustainment solution as well as the requirements set for them. After a successful feasibility study, there will be a more thorough value proposal phase together with the customer. Patria OPTIME ensures the performance of different kinds of fleets in all conditions over their entire lifecycle.

This solution leverages LLM-based data interpretation technology to detect process anomalies in advance, providing alerts and countermeasures before defects occur, thereby ensuring sufficient response time. It also analyzes issues such as positional misalignment or print degradation patterns during the process, matches them with various event timelines, identifies the root causes of defects, and delivers the findings in the form of analytical reports
