« En ce moment tout le monde regarde [...] le passage du CSeries à l'A220 chez Airbus », a déclaré, le 2 mars, le président du GIFAS, Éric Trappier, lors d'un point de presse en marge d'un événement réunissant 250 représentants du secteur des deux pays, France et Canada, qui se tenait à Montréal, dans le cadre de la mission industrielle du GIFAS au Canada. « C'est un métier difficile [où il faut savoir concilier les facteurs] techniques, commerciaux et financiers, a-t-il poursuivi. Ce n'est pas tout d'avoir des succès techniques. Il faut aussi pouvoir les financer. Et pour les financer, il faut pouvoir les vendre. » La mission du GIFAS espère notamment convaincre le gouvernement fédéral de ne pas toujours seulement regarder du côté des États-Unis lorsque vient le temps de faire ses dépenses militaires. |

At the CANSEC Exhibition, Leonardo has announced that it has signed a multi-million Euro contract with prime contractor QinetiQ to provide a number of PicoSAR Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA, also known as ‘E-Scan') radars. The radars will equip the new unmanned intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR) aircraft that have been ordered by the Canadian Armed Forces. Designed and manufactured by Leonardo in Edinburgh, U.K., PicoSAR will be employed by Canadian military units at sea and on land, for both domestic and international operations. PicoSAR offers high-performance E-scan surveillance capabilities in an extremely compact package. It is ideally suited for installation aboard the Canadian Armed Forces new system, which is based on the lightweight UMS Skeldar V-200 unmanned aerial system (UAS). With PicoSAR on-board, operators will benefit from a range of modes including high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging and ground moving target indication (GMTI). Together, these will deliver an effective all-weather ground mapping and surveillance capability for ISTAR missions. PicoSAR is an extremely flexible system and has flown on more than 10 different aircraft. The radar has been flown in Oceania, the Far East, the Middle East, Europe, North Africa, North America and South America and has been acquired by more than 10 customers. PicoSAR is part of a wider portfolio of airborne radars that include M-Scan (mechanically-scanning) and E-scan (electronically scanning) systems for both surveillance and fire-control missions. https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/canadian-armed-forces-unmanned-surveillance-drones-will-be-equipped-with-leonardo-e-scan-radar/
