Advanced Helicopter Avionics

Elbit Computers is an Israeli-based international company specializing in military electronics for air, land, sea and space applications. Since 1971, Elbit has been supplying Israeli Skyhawks, Phantoms, Kfir and Falcon fighters with a variety of mission equipment. In 1986, Elbit formed a new division of the company dedicated to developing helicopter avionics systems. Recent operational experiences and customer requirements indicated the emergence of the helicopter as the key vehicle on tomorrow's battlefield. To achieve mission objectives, the helicopter must be capable of flying at high speeds and low levels, both day and night. Elbit's helicopter avionics system integrates vision and perception, accurate navigation and geographic intelligence and obstacle data-base components. The result is an affordable package that can retrtofit a range of helicopters from light attack to heavy cargo assault.
