CILAS develops, manufactures and markets a wide range of products and systems for defence and security. The company is also involved in scientific and industrial laser programs.
CILAS’s main activities include target laser designator for laser guiding ammunition. Surveillance and laser optics detection for counter-sniping, counter-intelligence and protection of critical infrastructure. Laser range finding for air, ground and naval application equiping vehicles , helicopters and UAV optronics payload.
Helicopter visual landing aid systems to secure in extreme conditions (night and bad wheater conditions) approach and landing on naval vessels or platforms.
CILAS’s products are combat proven and in service in more 30 differents countries around the world.
CILAS’ DHY 308 Ground Target Laser Designators (GTLD) has been designed with the latest cutting edge laser athermal technology to provide accurate semi active laser guidance for all types of precisions guided munitions. CILAS’ DHY 308 GLTDs has been dedicated for closed air support mission. CILAS has designed its DHY 308 GLTDs with built-in laser see-spot camera.
CILAS’ Target Laser Designators have been successfully fielded worldwide by major defense forces such NATO armed forces, the French Defense Forces and additional modern defense forces around the world.
CILAS’ DHY 208 is a marker/designator which can illuminate targets and guide ammunitions equiped with a semi-active laser autodirecting system. It is characterized by its compactness, its lightweight and its ability to interface with Forward observers’ other equipements.
CILAS’ ALADEM-R Target Laser Designators Modules (TLDM) has been designed with the latest cutting edge laser athermal technology to provide accurate semi active laser guidance for all types of precisions guided munitions.
CILAS has developed its ALADEM-R TLDM to equip future attack helicopters, UAV and static/mobile land platforms with ultra-compact solution.
CILAS’ ALADEM-R Target Laser Designators Modules have been successfully choosen to equip French SCORPION program as well as several UAVs programs.
CILAS’ Laser Sniper Detectors (SLD range) have been designed with optronics top of the art cameras and latest laser scanning technology, to perform, by day or night, a clear target identification of pre-shoot sniper’s scopes or observer’s detection goggles. Laser Sniper and Sight Detector products can be used on fixed or mobile platforms.
SLD solutions are dedicated to security and defence application like critical infrastructures or large events protection as well as military or security forces protection.
Pioneer in the development of sniper laser detection, CILAS designed more recently a portable version named SLD500-LR providing long range observation and target identification for VIP and security/military forces protection.
CILAS’ rangefinders have been designed to meet extreme environment and use the latest available laser technologies providing ultra-compact and low power consumption solution. They are dedicated for land, naval or helicopter platform applications can be easily integrated in optronics payload or firing control system.
Based on single pulse time flight measurement CILAS’s rangefinders provide long range and accurate distance performances.
More than 8 000 rangefinders have been successfully fielded globally by major defense forces such as U.S, several NATO armed forces, the French Defense Forces and additional modern defense forces around the world.
