Don't leave base without it. This sentence will be painted on the walls of any briefing room of a modern air force fighter squadron.
The need to handle the ocean of data derived from many sensors has created a line of systems aimed at handling this never-ending stream of data of all sorts.
Rafael is the natural "father" of such systems. The Israeli company has been developing some of the most advanced sensors for fighters and is selling them to the most advanced air forces, including that of the US.
The German air force has recently become the launch customer for the Rafael ImiLite, an intelligence system designed to receive, process and exploit multiple standalone imagery video and other intelligence data in a centralised and unified way.
The Germans have fielded the first system in Afghanistan to allow their Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) Heron unmanned air systems (UAS) to shorten sensor-to-shooter time.
According to Rafael, the main system capabilities include the reception, processing and exploitation of EO, IR, SAR/GMTI and VIDEO, in various formats, over one desktop. This enables users to enhance the exploitation process.
ImiLite generates a variety of standard and customer-tailored ISR reports and IMINT products such as alphanumeric reports, annotated maps, GIS data layers and visual aids, and disseminates them to external information and operation systems over standard and tailored protocols.
The Israeli company says that ImiLite's multi-source data integration and automation capabilities improve the efficiency of utilising available collection and exploitation assets.
