PLUTON LW 288x4
Close
Pluton LW, manufactured in large quantities ( more than 25 000 units ), is reference for LWIR ( 8-12 µm ) scanning arrays and is battlefield-proven.
Sofradir is MCT technology allows operations in LWIR waveband, the preferred solution for ground-based applications.
This high-performance IDCA takes full advantage of Sofradir is state of the art technologies.
Standard configurations
- Integrated Detector Dewar Cooler Assemblies (IDDCA) with miniature Stirling-cycle rotary coolers, for compact, low power configuration.
- IDDCA with split Stirling-cycle linear cooler, for expanded lifetime & system integration facilitation.
