It also features integration between Mode S<sup>1<\/sup>&nbsp;and the ADS-B system, enabling greater precision in identifying cooperative and non-cooperative aircrafts. The update includes electronic protection features to ensure effective operation, even in the presence of electromagnetic interference, guaranteeing continuous and reliable surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Certified by the Brazilian Ministry of Defence, as a Strategic Defence Product (PED) and manufactured at Omnisys headquarters near S\u00e3o Paulo, the new co-mounted Primary TRAC NG and Secondary RSM NG Surveillance Radar is installed at Presidente Prudente airport (S\u00e3o Paulo), and provisioned for future IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) implementation. The launch of this radar station is part of the broader strategy to keep Brazilian skies increasingly secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The radar station will expand air traffic surveillance capabilities, significantly improving safety and operational efficiency at Presidente Prudente Airport \u2014 the third busiest airport in the interior of the state of S\u00e3o Paulo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis initiative represents a strategic step in renewing Brazil\u2019s radar network, ensuring greater operational reliability and alignment with current air traffic control demands,\u201d\u00a0says\u00a0<strong>Air Lieutenant Brigadier Maur\u00edcio Augusto Silveira de Medeiros, General Director of DECEA.\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cDECEA is proud of the significant operational advancements and efficiency level achieved at the Brazilian airspace control system, recognized as a worldwide reference. Thales, thanks to its cutting-edge solutions and commitment to localization, is a major partner of the Brazilian Air Force. We highly value this partnership and look forward to continued collaboration to further enhance our capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith 133 radars for Air Traffic Control and Management produced and delivered in Brazil, Thales confirms its commitment to deliver the best in technology, contributing to the security of Brazilian airspace. Local production not only reinforces, but also highlights our dedication to innovate in order to meet the specific needs of our customers. The modernization contract is key to maintaining the installed base of radars at the highest level of technology, as well as ensuring high operational reliability. We are committed to developing technology that addresses both current and future challenges of national airspace and security&#8221;,\u00a0adds<strong>\u00a0Eric HUBER, Vice President Surface Radars, Thales.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":13701,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"CBBTypography":[]},"news-category":[59,60],"news-date":[62,79],"class_list":["post-13700","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news-category-aswt","news-category-press-release","news-date-62","news-date-wednesday-2025"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
