XSIS222A

for Manned Aircraft

Advanced Situational Awareness for Helicopters on Critical Missions

The XSIS 222A is a domestically developed EO/IR sensor designed to enhance situational awareness for helicopters during public safety operations, patrols, search and rescue missions, and tactical monitoring. 

With a highly competitive value proposition, the solution combines a lower acquisition cost, domestic technical support, rapid integration into aircraft, and high operational availability to meet the demands of mission-critical operations. 

  • Daytime and nighttime operation
  • Competitive investment 
  • National Technical Support
  • Higher operational availability 

Air operations require more than just visibility 

The XSIS 222A combines EO (optical) sensors, MWIR (mid-wave infrared), LRF (laser rangefinder), and LP (laser pointer) sensors in a Low-SWaP architecture, designed for simplified integration into helicopters deployed on intelligence, reconnaissance, surveillance, patrol, and search and rescue (ISR-SAR) missions. 

Compact, lightweight, and easy to install, the system delivers high-quality images for both daytime and nighttime operations and enhances the ability to monitor, track, and support decision-making during the mission. 

Its modular architecture facilitates integration between different aircraft platforms and reduces aircraft downtime, providing greater operational flexibility and increased agility for field crews. 

A compact, rugged, and ready-to-use ISR-SAR solution 

The XSIS 222A is a high-performance solution that delivers advanced tactical intelligence in a compact (Low-SWaP) format. It integrates precision sensors — EO (optical/standard camera), IR (infrared/thermal), LRF (laser rangefinder), and LP (infrared laser pointer) — it transforms any helicopter into a robust platform for intelligence, reconnaissance, surveillance, and search and rescue (ISR-SAR).

Compact, lightweight, and easy to install, the system delivers high-quality images for day and night missions, ensuring enhanced real-time monitoring, tracking, and operational support capabilities. 

Thanks to its versatile architecture, the system can be easily transferred between aircraft, which reduces downtime and dramatically increases the readiness of field crews.

More information, more control, and faster decisions

In critical operations, having access to the right information at the right time makes all the difference. 

For this reason, the XSIS 222A features the GCS112A control station and the XSIS Manager software—a combination designed to provide the operator with a complete overview of the mission in progress. 

From a single interface, the operator has access to the key features for monitoring and decision-making: 

  • Real-time images of the operation; 
  • Mobile map showing the aircraft's position; 
  • Operational data integrated into the mission; 
  • Tracking of observed targets; 
  • Intuitive, easy-to-use interface; License plate recognition powered by artificial intelligence.
