MIRADOR is a lightweight, compact, electro-optical multi-sensor. It is a surveillance, tracking and fire control system of a stealthy design, which will contribute to a ship's effort to remain undetected. MIRADOR is designed for use on a wide range of platforms, from small patrol craft to large carriers, where it acts as an observation system and fire control director for distant optical investigation, as well as anti-surface and anti-air warfare.

MIRADOR is designed for use on a wide range of platforms, from small patrol craft to large carriers, where it acts as an observation system and fire control director for distant optical investigation, as well as anti-surface and anti-air warfare.

The MIRADOR fire control system incorporates the latest technological features such as carbon fibre shell structure and a direct-drive servo system. Thanks to its four sensors MIRADOR is capable of combining optical surveillance (good image quality) and tracking capabilities (good contrast). It uses two daylight TV cameras (surveillance & tracking), and an IR camera (tracking). An eye-safe laser range finder and an optronic tracking unit ensure that accurate target position indication is carried out.

• Very fast engagement sequence thanks to:
  • direct drive brushless servo system,
  • auto-acquisition algorithms
• Stealthy design
• Operational features:
  • naval gunfire support,
  • splash spotting
