Schiebel CAMCOPTER S-100 Successfully Demos Radar

UAS Integrated With Ground And Maritime Moving Target Indicator Capabilities

The Schiebel Group, based in Vienna, Austria, announced the successful demonstration of its CAMCOPTER S-100 uncrewed aerial system(UAS) integrated with the IMSAR NSP Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR).

The demo displayed the system’s Ground and Maritime Moving Target Indications capabilities during an intensive week-long trial at the Foremost UAS Test Range in Western Canada.

Schiebel said the integration of the radar system was completed ahead of schedule and that all electronic components were housed within the vehicle’s antenna pod. The software installed enables seamless mission planning and for the operator to upload flight plans directly to the S-100 platform.

The trial operations were conducted during both day and night, and at ranges exceeding 100 nm. The S-100 was equipped with IMSAR NSP radar, Wescam’s M-8 electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensor, a GPS anti-jam system, and an automatic identification system. The vehicle successfully conducted a series of simulated land and maritime tasks, at times in challenging weather conditions.

The system provided high-resolution SAR imagery as well as Ground Moving Target Indication detections and tracks. The results demonstrated its versatility and highlighted the IMSAR radar as a pivotal sensor for the platform’s performance and situational awareness in complex operational environments.

Neil Hunter, Head of Global Sales for Schiebel said, “The integration of IMSAR’s radar with the S-100, in combination with a powerful EO/IR, significantly expands the platform's surveillance and detection capabilities, allowing for wide-area coverage at impressive distances in all weather conditions. This trial underlines the continuing operational effectiveness of the CAMCOPTER S-100 as a multi-sensor platform, capable of delivering actionable intelligence in real-time, day and night.”
