TDS is a compact, un-cooled thermal sight designed for tactical and armoured combat vehicles, which have moderate-to-high space and weight limitations but still require an enhanced degree of situational awareness during closed-hatch and high-risk operations, Thales says.

The TLNS addresses the requirements for a highly accurate navigation system for armoured vehicles, including a Commanders Display Panel.

Thales says it features a powerful navigation processor with associated peripherals and interfaces to achieve a robust navigation solution suitable for the harshest of environments.

Financial details and a delivery date were not disclosed.
