About
BIRD Aerosystems develops and deploys airborne missile protection systems (AMPS) and airborne surveillance, information, and observation (ASIO) solutions.
BIRD’s field-proven Airborne Missile Protection System (AMPS) family of solutions is designed to provide total protection in dense and diverse threat environments by protecting crews and aircraft against all known Surface-to-Air Missiles (SAMs), including man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS), laser beam rider (LBR) and radar-guided missiles. Integrated with BIRD’s patented Confirmation and Tracking Sensors, AMPS uniquely ensures an unprecedented Zero False Alarm Rate (FAR) along with enhanced protection based on each real threat’s unique characteristics enabling users to detect threats in a way that has never been possible before, ensuring optimal aircraft protection tailored to defeat each specific threat.
The companys AMPS and ASIO solutions are in operational use by countries and customers worldwide, including NATO forces, UN air operations, and the U.S. government.
