WESCAM MXâ„¢-GCS, Independent Stabilized Sighting Systems

MISSION & PLATFORMS

An Ideal System for: Gunner Sight, Commander Sight, Situational Awareness missions.

Ground Installations: Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs), Main Battle Tanks (MBTs).

As a Gunner Sight

The WESCAM MX-GCS can identify threats beyond the range of the vehicle’s weapon system, allowing for standoff distance engagements at maximum effective ranges.

As a Commander Sight

The WESCAM MX-GCS provides vehicle commanders the ability to scan for, identify and track targets (Hunter) independent of the gunner system, hand-off identified threats between target acquisition systems (Killer) or fire weapons autonomously from the commander position.

Enhance Your Situational Awareness

  • 360 degree scanning capability independent of the gun turret axis
  • Integrate a series of high-performing sensors for optimal visibility, day and night
  • Mid-wave large-format cooled thermal imager
  • High-Definition (HD) daylight imaging sensor
  • Eyesafe Laser Rangefinder

Reduce Your Detection Time

  • Real-time image enhancement of all sensors
  • High-performance haze penetration
  • Improved feature recognition and identification
  • Image blending – combine day and infrared night images into a single image stream, affording the operator the benefits of both

Uncompromised Sighting and Firing Efficiency
