The Glenair next-generation STAR-PAN NG ecosystem incorporates a range of new capabilities in direct response to requests from JTACs, special operations forces, mission commanders, and other military specialists. Design innovations in STAR-PAN NG have resulted in higher current-carrying capabilities, greater versatility in power input support, and real-time plug-and-play USB device integration. The STAR-PAN NG hub and cable series offers a number of interface improvements and circuit board innovation.

The Defence Technological and Industrial Bases is indispensable for maintaining peace and security. After all, it provides an armed force with services and equipment. If it does not, the armed forces are left hobbled. This also applies to the Dutch armed forces. Nevertheless, the defence and security sector is experiencing difficulties in accessing private finance. Referring to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria, companies in the sector would not be able to access private financing from pension institutions, insurers and financial service providers. Because of the same criteria, the sector is experiencing difficulties in opening accounts with private banks. Below is summary on the current state of the issue.

Wishing you a speedy recovery Dave!

Powered by a single CR123 lithium battery, the ACTUS® ALD-1 Laser Sight offers 4 to 9 hours of runtime, depending on usage. Its robust all-aluminum housing ensures exceptional durability, while its compact size, similar to a standard deck of playing cards, makes it highly portable and convenient. The IR and visible lasers are optically paired, streamlining the zeroing process for quick, accurate adjustments and enhanced ease of use.

The Crane stands as a state-of-the-art Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) detector. This device features a 5-megapixel resolution in a 2560×2048 format with a fine 5μm pitch. It is based on SCD's established XBn technology or Hot Full Midwave (HFM) and incorporates a digital readout circuit developed using an advanced CMOS process. The High Operating Temperature (HOT) Focal Plane Array (FPA) functions efficiently at 150K or 120K, enabling a large-format detector that excels in image quality while maintaining a relatively compact size, weight, and power consumption. SCD continues to lead in innovation.
