Model 12DS/TS-200
Designed to meet the needs of law enforcement, paramilitary and surveillance applications on both rotary and fixed wing aircraft.
Ideal Performance
The Model 12DS/TS-200 is designed to meet the needs of law enforcement, paramilitary and surveillance applications on both rotary and fixed wing aircraft. Through superior gyro-stabilization and long-range infrared optics, the Model 12DS/TS-200 provides high performance detection, recognition, identification and tracking of persons and vehicles over long distances in daylight, in total darkness, and in less-than-ideal weather conditions.

Modular Payload
The Model 12DS/TS-200 supports up to 3 sensors for to address mission requirements

3-5μm - 3 field-of-view Thermal Imager, with Indium Antimonide ("InSb") staring array
Color Daylight CCD camera with 20x zoom lens.
(optional) IR Illuminator

Proven Design
The small size and light weight of the Model 12DS/TS-200 permit this system to be installed on a wide range of rotary and fixed-wing aircraft where compact, high performance systems are needed. Through the SmartLink Interface Unit (SIU) the Model 12DS/TS-200 system is compatible with other mission equipment such as microwave downlook equipment, searchlights, auto trackers, moving maps, GPS, radar and intercom systems.

Model 14 Skyball
Tri, Quad or Penta Sensor Turret

Ideal Performance
Extensively deployed on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and other high performance aircraft for highrisk reconnaissance missions, the Model 14 Skyball is the only actively gyro-stabilized system in its class with the capacity to accommodate up to five sensor payloads for total imaging and tracking capability.

Flexible Payloads

3–5μm 6 field-of-view Thermal Imager
Color Daylight 1 CCD Camera with 955mm longrange spotter lens
Color Daylight 1 CCD Camera with 20x zoom lens
Eyesafe Laser Range Finder (LRF)
Laser Illuminator

Exceptional Stabilization
The Model 14 Skyball’s active gyrostabilization and vibration isolation allows less than 35 microradians rms line of sight (LOS) jitter, enabling you to detect and classify persons, objects and vehicles over long distances, day or night. The Model 14 Skyball system is manufactured to MIL specs and backed by L-3 Sonoma’s worldwide reputation for “rock solid” stability, reliability and low maintenance requirements.
