The contract covers both the equipment on board the aircraft and the ground augmentation station to improve navigation accuracy during takeoff and landing.The SIRTAP remotely piloted aircraft is designed for advanced intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions (day and night), both on land and at sea. With a range of more than 2,000 kilometers and an operating time of more than 20 hours, it will be able to fly in the harshest environmental and operating conditions (-40°C and +50°C). In the future, attack capabilities may also be integrated.This project has consolidated GMV's leading position in the development of navigation systems for defense systems. The navigation system for SIRTAP draws on GMV's long experience in navigation and avionics systems, incorporating all the navigation advances developed by GMV in other programs, such as the development of the SENDA navigation system for the F-110 frigate and the ISNAV navigation system for the 8x8 vehicle. The High Performance Remotely Piloted System (SIRTAP) will provide a performance leap in the high-end tactical unmanned aircraft segment. Its dual applications, both in support of civilian and military operations, will offer a wide range of missions tailored to the operational needs of institutional and government clients.Together with the development of the navigation system, GMV will also develop the front-view camera used remotely by the pilot for taxiing, takeoff, and landing.
