In operation since 2003 MERLIN Aircraft Birdstrike Avoidance Radar is now available with TRUE3D? for simultaneous bird and drone detection at commercial airports and military airfields
DeTect announced the introduction of the world?s first dual function bird and drone radar operational on US Military Installations ? MERLIN BDR-DDR. Developed for real-time, tactical operational birdstrike avoidance, MERLIN now has TRUE3D for simultaneous bird and drone detecting capabilities.
The proven technology can be integrated with radar-directed electro-optic, infrared (EOIR) camera system and DroneWatcher? RF-DR radiofrequency drone detection & interdiction. The system comes in a fixed or mobile design, fully self-contained with all system hardware, software and integration included.
Recently returned from installing the system at a US Air Force Base in California, Project Manager Mike Bierman said
?The dual configuration is a game changer for air bases and commercial airports that can now have a two-in-one system for tracking both birds and drones. DeTect?s dynamic multibeam TRUE3D radar scans and updates target data across the entire 3D volume, continually out to 5+ km in all weathers 24/7.?
