ENAER and its subsidiary DTS will present their upcoming training aircraft PILLAN II at FIDAE 2022

Over the course of the exhibition, both companies will present the peripheral subsystems underlying PILLAN II, including the SIM (Flight Simulator). The SIM subsystem consists of a cockpit, a station for the instructor, and a mixed-reality visual system. Not only it allows for procedure instruction, but also planned mission practices, for military pilots to be trained under Visual Flight Rules.

This aircraft has been conceived as an evolved version of the T-35 PILLAN, that prioritizes the safety of occupants. It is a two-seater single-engine aircraft in tandem mode. The cabin resembles a combat aircraft equipped with the latest in avionics, enabling IFR flight, new wing design, retractable tricycle gear, and an air conditioning system. Optional night and day surveillance systems can be added with real-time data transmission.

The PILLAN II project will enable the implementation of state-of-the-art aeronautical technology and engineering in the national industry and, in turn, reinvigorate the manufacturing capacities currently available in ENAER and in other companies in the country to resume aircraft manufacturing in Chile after 8 years. And this is precisely why ENAER will be present at the new Air and Space Fair FIDAE 2022 to showcase their upcoming instruction aircraft.

Embraer and the Brazilian Army sign contract for four additional SABER M60 radars

Acquiring the SABER M60 radars is part of the Strategic Planning of the Brazilian Army 2020-2023 and expands the Land Forces’ operational capacity. It shows the commitment to the constitutional mission of homeland defense and contributes to the expansion of partnerships between the public sector, academia and industry in order to seek mastery of critical technologies in the defense area.

As a result of the partnership between Embraer and the Brazilian Army in developing a low-altitude anti-aircraft artillery radar, the SABER M60 Radar is 100% developed in Brazil, having entered operation in 2010 when the first units were delivered to the Army. In 2019, the technological update phase was completed, resulting in version 2.0 which has already been exported.

The SABER M60 is a search radar that integrates a low-altitude anti-aircraft defense system to protect strategic points and areas, such as factories, power plants, and government facilities. With 3D technology, it has a range of 32 nautical miles and an altitude of up to 16,400 feet, with the ability to track up to 60 targets simultaneously, including automatic target detection and classification. Easy to assemble and transport, it can be assembled in 15 minutes and includes Low Probability Interception (LPI) technology, which allows it to identify targets without being easily identified.

The SABER M60 can be integrated into missile-based weapons systems or anti-aircraft cannons and can be customized to be integrated into any other air defense system, such as the Brazilian Aerospace Defense System.
