FLIR Systems and Max-Viz Join (Armed) Forces

Will Provide Enhanced Vision Systems for Military and Government Helicopters

FLIR Systems, Inc. announced Tuesday it has entered into an agreement with Max-Viz to act as the exclusive distributor of Max-Viz's Enhanced Vision Systems (EVS) for use in selected rotary wing aircraft applications worldwide.

"The EVS products designed by Max-Viz offer an effective solution to improve visibility in difficult environments," said Andrew Teich, FLIR's Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "We are pleased to be working with the Max-Viz team on this important product."

"FLIR's selection of our EVS products is another validation of our technology and a major step in the development of our company," said Roger Watson, Vice President and Chief Design Officer of Max-Viz. "This partnership allows us to take advantage of FLIR's strong worldwide distribution channels and superior reputation in the military and government helicopter market."

Under the terms of the agreement with FLIR, Max-Viz maintains executive transport, emergency medical services (EMS) and commercial utility helicopters as its customers.

Max-Viz EVS provides pilots with increased situational awareness and the ability to react when unaided vision is impaired due to darkness or visual obscurants. Utilization of the system directly addresses the three major flight safety concerns today: controlled flight into terrain (CFIT); approach and landing accidents; and runway incursions. In addition, the system aids in taxi/takeoff operations, and improves operational safety and efficiency.

FLIR Systems designs, manufactures and markets infrared imaging systems worldwide for a variety of applications. FLIR's imaging products are used in such diverse applications as public safety, defense, navigation, electronic news gathering and search and rescue. Thermography products support such applications as condition monitoring, non-destructive testing, medical science, research and development, and manufacturing process control.
