These capabilities include leading-edge design, development and technology integration. To help customers upgrade their aircraft, ST Aerospace is able to develop avionics hardware and flight software solutions to the latest commercial technology standards. This is achieved by the company's strong maintenance engineering, aerodynamics, aerosystems, structural and aeromechanical analysis expertise.
Avionics Systems Upgrade. The B737 full sized cockpit mock-up demonstrates a typical narrow-body commercial aircraft cockpit upgrade comprising large 10-inch flat panel displays for pilot (primary flight display/navigation display, PFD/ND), engine indicators and alternative 15-inch display on the co-pilot instrument panel for Flight Management System (FMS) supporting future navigation requirements, and an electronic flight bag solution for flight dispatch and back office support functions. This is possible due to ST Aerospace' strengths in aircraft design, development and system integration. ST Aerospace is, as an independent design and development company, able to provide and integrate modern avionics systems from the best equipment of various original equipment manufacturers (OEM) to meet customers' specific requirements.
Unmanned Air Systems. Leveraging on its advance engineering and design skills, ST Aerospace has developed innovative Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems targeted for the civilian and military market. Testament to its aircraft design and systems development capabilities, ST Aerospace's unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) solutions, for example, the FanTail and Skyblade, or a tailored solution for customers who have different needs, are available for various applications.
The unique FanTail 5000 system, comprising of the FanTail 5000 air vehicle itself, a ground control station and a data-link system, is well suited for urban and military field environments where a combination of high transit speed (for quick response) and a vertical take-off and landing capability allows for over-the-hill, around-the-corner, and over-the-next-building surveillance and reconnaissance.
The Skyblade family was jointly developed with the Singapore-based DSO National Laboratories (DSO), with the latest versions being the Skyblade III and Skyblade IV systems. Designed for rapid mission deployment, supporting military and civilian applications, and developed for fully autonomous flight operations, the Skyblade family of UAVs delivers an effective, highly mobile reconnaissance capability for any user.
Also on display is the Next Generation Control System (NGCS) that delivers a single, common control station platform for multiple types of UAV. This innovative system simplifies training, operations and maintenance for users with more than one UAV systems in service.
