OLS-35

IOC: 2009

Origin
Russia

Applications
Su-35
Su-35UB

Description: The OLS-35 is an advanced infrared search and track (IRST) fire control system designed for the 4+ generation Su-35 fighter aircraft replacing the OEPS-27 sight system. OLS-35 comprises a heat-seeker, a laser rangefinder/designator and a TV camera along with new algorithms and advanced software to outperform its predecessor installed on the Su-27/Su-30 aircraft family. The Su-35 IRST is superior to the OEPS-27 in terms of range, precision and reliability.

The OLS-35 provides a coverage of +/-90 in azimuth and +60/-15 in elevation with a target acquisition range for non-afterburning aerial targets of 50 km facing up to target's front hemisphere and 90 km facing up to rear hemisphere. The laser rangefinder features a five-meter Circular Error Probable (CEP) and ranges up to 20 km for aerial targets and 30 km for targets on the ground.

Specifications
Performance: Azimuth Coverage 180 °, Coverage in Elevation 75 °, Max Detection Range 90 km (49 nm) rear hemisphere of non-afterburning aerial targets, Measurement Accuracy 5 m (16 ft) laser rangefinder
