Aerial Surveillance
OHB DIGITAL is developing technologies required for the future combat aircraft system for the German federal armed forces. It primarily engages in the further development of communication links and research into the necessary radar, electro-optical and infrared reconnaissance sensors.
OHB DIGITAL operates its own flight system, which can be flexibly equipped with a wide variety of different earth observation and reconnaissance sensors. For this reason, it is also able to also offer individual flights and thus collect specific data for its earth observation missions.
