TS20 Ultra-Light has been specifically designed for maritime surveillance. It is equipped with target track-while-scan (TWS) capabilities, Maritime Moving Target Indicator (MMTI) with a high resolution inverse synthetic-aperture radar (ISAR) and capability for target classification. Gabbiano radar provides all-weather, day-and-night surveillance in conditions where automatic search and detection optical systems are strongly limited (e.g. haze, fog, rain). To optimize capability in the maritime environment, Gabbiano Ultra-Light operates in X-band, which is less sensitive to weather phenomena with respect to Ku-band radar systems.
AWHero successfully completes inflight tests of its Radar- based Enhanced Maritime Surveillance Sensor Suite
AWHero, Leonardo’s 200 kilogram-class military grade rotary UAS, successfully completed inflight tests for the verification and validation of its high-end Maritime ISR multi-sensor suite, which features the Maritime ISAR Radar (Leonardo Gabbiano TS20 Ultra-light), an 8-inch EO/IR, and AIS transceiver.
The Gabbiano TS20 Ultra-Light Maritime Radar, manufactured by Leonardo, is a low SWAP multimode mechanical scan surveillance radar with 180° azimuth coverage. Gabbiano
Within the AWHero control station, Radar Tracks (in NATO symbology) and AIS data are merged for potential threats first reconnaissance and EO/IR is automatically controlled to frame the target selected on the display. Control station STANAG 4586 compliant, with EO/IR video flow in STANAG 4609 format, and radar tracks compliant with STANAG 4676, make the AWHero ready for full integration into ship CMS.
The AWHero equipped with the Leonardo Gabbiano TS20 Ultra Light Radar is the most effective embarked UAS to reliably provide the host vessel with a persistent surveillance capability and a complete maritime picture, providing area coverage more than four-times greater than other UAS of the same weight category equipped with optical sensors.
