Airborne Information Surveillance And Reconnaissance Solution For The Bell 407 GXP
Bell Helicopter has signed a cooperation agreement to integrate the BIRD Aerosystems Surveillance, Intelligence and Observation (ASIO) package as a complete end-to-end airborne information surveillance and reconnaissance solution (ISR) for the Bell 407GXP.
“Bell Helicopter and BIRD Aerosystems have worked closely together to bring this solution to the market,” said Shaul Mazor, VP of marketing and business development, BIRD Aerosystems. “The Bell 407 ASIO, which is now available to our customers, combines the state of the art Bell 407GXP and an advanced mission package that includes a wide range of mission specific sensors and communications systems all integrated together using BIRD's advanced mission management system.”
ASIO provides decision makers and field commanders with accurate, real-time terrestrial and maritime information. ASIO is highly-customizable and can be rapidly deployed in a variety of configurations. It has also proven itself ideal for irregular warfare requirements, border surveillance and coastal patrol duties. It is a true force multiplier that enables even small crews to deliver detailed and comprehensive surveillance information about a large geographic area.
“We recognize that our customers need to protect themselves against national security threats,” Said Jakub Hoda, regional sales director, Bell Helicopter. “We believe that the Bell 407 ASIO offers the most advanced solution to support our customers with their evolving operational challenges and brings them the improved multi mission capability of the Bell 407GXP which makes it the first optimal platform for integrating the scalable ASIO package.”
