The complexity of current and future military air operations is no longer compatible with visual friend identification while new systems such as TCAS and Mode S, are increasingly in demand for military aircraft, which must now comply with ICAO regulations.
Cooperative target identification and IFF-based air traffic control offer the best response to this challenge.
The THALES IFF product line, transponders, interrogators and combined interrogator-transponders, delivers the functionality required to meet these needs, and provide new services such as Mode 5 / National Secure Mode.
