The Toplite family of electro-optic systems is an advanced multi-sensor, multi-purpose, highly stabilized EO system for homeland security and defense applications. It is used as a surveillance, reconnaissance and weapon direction system.

Mature, proven and fielded, the Toplite EOS, incorporates up to five sensors for detection, identification and targeting. The turret is a sealed and single LRU which contains the sensors, the electronic section including the advanced tracker and the stabilization sub-system. The Toplite enables automatic or manual scene monitoring and investigation using its advanced

control unit.

The Toplite EOS is derived from the Litening targeting and navigation pod and therefore enjoys all the latest developments made for the world’s leading targeting system.

The Toplite EOS features an extensive growth potential, which will enable its utilization for many years in the changing operational environment. This growth potential will be realized in advanced sensor integration and unique image enhancement techniques.

The Toplite EOS is currently operational in more than 20 countries in all branches of the armed forces.

The highly stabilized Toplite uses a wide array of sensors, including laser designation, enabling extensive airborne combat when combined with precision weapon systems.

The system can be provided in a stand alone mode or integrated into the aircraft avionics. A moving map and data-link are provided as options for higher level of operation and command and control.

When mounted on low-flying

On the ground, the Toplite EOS is used for reconnaissance missions

The Toplite EOS serves as a main electro-optical observation, surveillance and identification system as well as an advanced targeting system for small attack boats through USVs and up to aircraft carriers in navies and maritime forces around the world.

aircraft and combined with image enhancement application, the system increases crew safety due to its unique obstacle avoidance algorithms which are built into the s/w package.

on manned and unmanned vehicles, border protection, strategic facility protection and as a system for identification /verification of potential targets or threats.

Toplite EOS is able to identify a threat and then slave other systems (C2, radar, EW, weapon stations) to its location for appropriate response. Toplite and the image processing package provide exceptional situational awareness for operational forces.

especially designed for the naval environment and system robustness provide excellent reliability, exceptional MTBF and a high performance EO system.
