SCORPIO LW 640x512

Scorpio LW is a compact high-resolution LWIR IDCA with low power consumption. This IDCA offers high speed operation for detecting fast moving targets or improving the sensitivity.
Thus, it is well-suited to high-performance and long-range applications.
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 Assembly (IDDCA) with miniature Stirling-cycle rotary cooler, for compact, low power configuration.

On-request configurations

- IDDCA with split Stirling-cycle linear cooler, for expanded lifetime and ease of system integration.
- Customized aperture
