  Photonis réalise un chiffre d’affaires de 150 millions d’euros en 2020 et rachète Device-ALab

  Spécialiste de la vision nocturne pour les forces armées, la PME française Photonis a conclu en 2020 un chiffre d'affaires de 150 millions d'euros, dix fois supérieur à celui de l'année précédente. Photonis a été sélectionné comme fournisseur exclusif de tubes intensificateurs de lumière pour le nouveau programme d'acquisition d'armes de précision de l'Armée Française, et il a obtenu le contrat des nouvelles jumelles de vision nocturne O-NYX. La société a par ailleurs annoncé le rachat de Device-ALab, l'un de ses partenaires dans le marché des caméras infrarouge. « Cela fait quatre ans que nous sommes partenaires et depuis plusieurs mois, nous envisagions de fusionner nos technologies. L'infrarouge est en pleine croissance et extrêmement complémentaire de nos technologies actuelles », explique Geoffroy Deltel, le directeur technique de Photonis. Les deux partenaires ont gagné il y a deux ans un contrat de la DGA pour les tireurs d'élite, et Photonis l'a accompagné en Australie pour équiper des véhicules militaires. Les Echos du 22 mars 2021

  US Navy officially inducts Triton UAV into service

  Gareth Jennings, London - Jane's Navy International The US Navy (USN) has officially commenced operations of its Northrop Grumman MQ-4C Triton Broad Area Maritime System (BAMS) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), it was announced on 1 June. A ceremony to formally induct the high-altitude long-endurance (HALE) UAV into service with Unmanned Patrol Squadron (VUP)-19 – the navy's first unmanned patrol squadron – was held the previous day at Naval Base Ventura County in Point Mugu, California. VP-19 now has two Triton UAVs, which are housed in specially constructed to facilities designed to accommodate their nearly 40 m wingspans. With this milestone, VP-19 will undertake training and trials ahead of the platform's inaugural overseas deployment, which will be to the Pacific island of Guam later this year. For this and later deployments, the Triton will operate in concert with the manned Boeing P-8A Poseidon maritime multimission aircraft. The MQ-4C Triton has been developed from the Block 30 RQ-4N naval variant of the RQ-4 Global Hawk HALE UAV to provide the USN with a persistent maritime intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capability in support of a full range of military operations. Designed for high-altitude, long-endurance ISR tasks, the Triton has a range of about 2,000 n miles and, with an endurance of 24 hours, will be able to cover more than 2.7 million sq miles in a single mission. Its payload primarily comprises the AN/ZPY-3 multifunction active-sensor radar. The USN has established the infrastructure to train its Triton operators at Naval Air Station (NAS) Jacksonville in Florida. Operators undergo training under the supervision of Patrol Squadron (VP) 30 at the 11,600 m2 Integrated Test Center (ITC), which is also used for the training of P-8A Poseidon and P-3 Orion crews. http://www.janes.com/article/80602/us-navy-officially-inducts-triton-uav-into-service
