Special Mission Aircraft (SMA) Solution

With ever-growing threats to national security, increasing ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) requirements, and responding to the rise in the global demand for more comprehensive environmental monitoring-the need for a truly comprehensive, end-to-end, yet cost effective, airborne surveillance, intelligence and observation solution couldn't be clearer.

To meet these threats, METIS Aerosystems has developed the SMA (Special Mission Aircraft) solution to provide users with a combat proven and reliable ISR system that is ideal to participate in maritime and ground surveillance, search and rescue, patrol and monitoring.

SMA is a complete system that uses state of the art, all-weather surveillance and monitoring sensors that are integrated with an advanced Multi Sensor Integration System (MSIS).

Based on your operational requirements, METIS's customized SMA solution will include a variety of state-of-the-art sensors needed to capture every object or situation of interest to keep you both informed and enable you to take corrective actions.

Once the mission information is collected, video, data and voice are then securely communicated to your ground C&C station in real-time over either satellite links or direct line-of-sight data links to create a unified and common situational picture. The mission data can also be disseminated to other ground centers or users of your choice, in real-time, in order to provide you with maximum operational advantage to effectively respond to the threats.

SMA is designed to be an extremely powerful, comprehensive and highly flexible ISR solution that is custom tailored to the specific needs of each and every customer.
