Sting EO

Description: The Thales Sting EO is a modular, medium-range, lightweight sensor suite intended for shipborne applications as fire control system. The Sting EO combines a medium-range, dual-band (I and K) radar director with an electro-optical tracking sensor package comprising TV camera, FLIR and laser. All in, the sensor suite provides outstanding resistance against electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM). The sensor suite also provides built-in PreAction Calibration (PAC) and Miss Distance Indication (MDI).

The Sting EO Mk2 is an upgraded version incorporating the latest solid state I and K band radar transmitters featuring lower life cycle cost and higher availability as well as a third generation focal plane array infrared camera. Sophisticated target data processing also provides enhanced detection, tracking and identification capabilities. The Mk2 version is well suited for operations in the littoral environment with dense clutter and jamming.
