Aktyvus Photonics’ OEM DPSS (diode-pumped solid-state) laser target designators are perfectly suited for payloads on UAVs and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). Their compact design and cost efficiency surpass all competitors, enabling capabilities that where once unattainable for smaller unmanned systems.
These low-size, weight, and power (SWaP) solutions democratize laser target designation, making it accessible to smaller, more affordable aircraft. The compact lasers can be mounted on lightweight gimbals, allowing cost-effective small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) and micro-UAVs to implement innovative operational strategies:
1. Close-Range Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR): Small UAVs can approach enemy positions discreetly, gathering vital aerial intelligence without drawing attention. This enables thorough surveillance and reconnaissance while keeping personnel safe.
2. Precision Laser Target Designation: The UAVs can accurately designate targets using lasers that comply with NATO STANAG 3733 standards, ensuring precise guidance for various munitions.
3. Coordinated Strike Delivery: Strikes can be executed by aircraft and multiple rocket launchers from a safe distance, well outside the enemy’s line of sight, thereby protecting allied forces.
The compact nature and lightweight design of these laser target designators allow for additional sensors, such as electro-optical cameras for target identification and tracking, to be carried simultaneously. They are also built to endure the rigors of modern combat,featuring ruggedization against extreme shock,temperature fluctuations,and humidity.
Aktyvus has crafted a diverse array of products tailored to various operational ranges and vehicle SWaP requirements, all free from ITAR and BAFA export limitations.
