'IFP'

The ‘IFP’ Integrated Reconnaissance Platform is a complex sensor system combined with a unique single mast solution for limitless operation. The sensor system consists of a dual camera system with built in LRF (Laser Range Finder) and a Ground Surveillance Radar, as well as a heavy duty Leveling Unit for compensating the slope of the carrier vehicle. The entire platform is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions in the operational area. The Leveling Unit has high payload capacity and built-in sensor for automatically perform the slope compensation within the range of +/- 15 degree.

The PGSR-3i ‘Beagle’ Mk II. radar is mounted on the Leveling Unit with a special Rotator Unit which supports sectorial and continuous 360 degree scanning. This solution provides solid and stable platform for the dual camera system on the top without blocking the full range of scan. The radar can be easily removed from the mast and deployed on a tripod up to 100 meters away from the carrier vehicle if the operational scenario requires. The system has a special artillery mode. In the artillery mode the system can detect and determine the coordinates of artillery shell impacts with NATO Class-1 accuracy, and forward the data to fire control systems.

The high resolution dual camera system provides a secondary surveillance layer, and the ability to accurately measure target distances. The high precision Pan and Tilt Unit of the dual camera system combined with the LRF provides another NATO Class-1 measurement capability for the operator, ensuring high reliability performance in multiple operational scenarios.

The Integrated Reconnaissance Platform is integrated into the ADAMS software suit, which gives the operator full control of all sensors with an ergonomic and user friendly interface. The ADAMS software is already integrated in different C2 and C4i systems, in order to support the commanders with reliable information.
