Thales offers a range of capabilities from prime contractorship for complete systems to subsystems supplier, offering a full spectrum of critical subsystems, including data links, radar, optical and electromagnetic payloads, and automatic take-off and landing systems.

Drawing on its understanding of operational requirements, mature technologies, simulation tools and techniques, and experience with manned aircraft of all types, Thales is in an ideal position to design complete Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) based Information, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) systems.

Thales provides effective and competitive multi-sensor, multi-mission and multi-platform solutions to meet current and future needs.

Watchkeeper at the cutting edge
The UK Watchkeeper programme illustrates Thales's expertise in UAVs, providing unrivalled ISTAR capability.
With the experience gained from developing Watchkeeper and other ISTAR programmes, Thales is well placed to provide effective and competitive UAV solutions to meet current and future needs.

Watchkeeper UAV
The high performance Watchkeeper UAV has a multi-payload capability, carrying a range of payloads including synthetic aperture radar/ground moving target indicator (SAR/GMTI), electro-optical/infrared sensor (EO/IR), with an optional laser target designator, and data link relays. Its multi-sensor function enables it to deliver high-quality image intelligence day and night, in all weather conditions.

Information gathering
Using Thales's cutting-edge exploitation and dissemination technology, Watchkeeper enables commanders to gather intelligence and track targets without having to deploy troops into potentially sensitive or dangerous areas. It also offers the ability to loiter while a target is engaged.

THALES +
Thales's UAV systems combine air vehicles, sensor suites and ground-based exploitation segments as part of a network-enabled capability.
Thales UAV systems are multi-sensor, multimission and multi-platform solutions, designed to meet a broad range of both military and nonmilitary needs such as civil and energy protection, and economic and environmental monitoring.
Designed in close cooperation with operational users, Thales's range of UAV systems places great emphasis on interoperability, survivability, persistence, endurance and flight operations in military and civil aerospace.
