KF-21 IRST(Infrared Search and Track)
Detects and tracks air targets and provides target information
IRST System provides detection and tracking of air threats thru infrared sensor-based wide area search. This electro-optic equipment provides such information as direction and elevation as well as infrared images of approaching threats including enemy fighter plane or air-defense missiles, etc.
Hanwha Systems’ IRST System utilizes passive sensor(infrared), which allows for search and tracking of targets during both day and night times under all weather conditions while not being detected by air threats.
Features

Provides azimuth and elevation information and infrared image information of air threats such as enemy plane and air defense missiles.

Performs stealth operation under the emission control situation.

Utilizes passive sensor(infrared sensor)to provide target detection and tracking functions at both day and night times without the risk of being detected by the enemy.

TADS(Target Acquisition Designation System)
Detects, recognizes and identifies day and night targets in support of ground target strikes. Being equipped with HD-level thermal and daytime cameras, laser ranger finder, laser guidance for missiles and laser tracker to trace laser guides, TADS is the key sensor for Armed Helicopter.
Provides EO·IR(Electro-optics/Infrared) images for forward observation and target acquisition; image-based navigation using thermal images of optical clocks; interface with fire control systems; calculation of target coordinates; target distance calculation; guidance for guided missiles and automatic tracking. It can be converted to observation and reconnaissance purposes and operated on unmanned or fixed wing platforms.
Features

EO·IR images for forward observation and target acquisition and designation.

Image-based navigation based on optical clock thermal images.

Interface with fire control systems, target coordinate calculations

Target distance measuring, guides for guided missile and automatic tracking

EOTS for Anti-Aircraft Gun Wheeled Vehicle(Electro-Optical Tracking System)
EOTS mounted on anti-aircraft gun wheeled vehicle system. When the external air defense system makes target allocation, EOTS is directed towards the allocated targets to detect and identify the targets and provide acquired target information, so that air-aircraft gun can engage with them. When the link with the external air defense system is blocked, EOTS can be switched to a stand-alone mode to make automatic target detection and tracking for a certain range as defined, or for all directions.
Features

Small-sized, light weight structure to be easily mounted on various platforms

Fast automatic detection and precision tracking for all directions(360° degree angles) or for 45° degree angles of defined range

Search and track of small sized unmanned aircraft

Can be connected to external air defense network or operate stand-alone air defense mode with 360° degree angle of all direction observation

Modular design that allows for easy replacement of components
