pv2535

The PV2535 is the first of its kind—a 35″-class, laser-ready EO/IR multispectral platform delivering industry-leading stand-off range, zoom power, and stabilization in a 25″ system footprint, without the traditional penalties of size and weight.

Designed for extreme stand-off operations (~100 km IRD), high-altitude surveillance, and persistent-stare missions, the PV2535 sets a new benchmark for strategic intelligence gathering on large manned aircraft and aerostat-based platforms.

Unmatched. Anywhere.

The New Benchmark in Strategic ISR EO/IR Systems

Delivers ISR performance that exceeds legacy 25″ systems by orders of magnitude—reaching stand-off, persistence, and resolution performance that do not exist in current operational EO/IR platforms, across high-endurance aircraft and persistent aerostat deployments alike.

Expanding Operational Edge

The PV2535 is built for missions where existing ISR systems simply run out of capability.

It enables extreme stand-off surveillance, persistent custody, and wide-area dominance at ranges and altitudes that exceed the operational limits of legacy 25″ EO/IR systems.

Whether maintaining continuous overwatch for hours or days, operating beyond threat envelopes, or sustaining visibility at the edge of the battlespace, the PV2535 establishes a sensing advantage that cannot be matched by current systems.

This is ISR in a new operational regime—defined by reach, persistence, and dominance.

Strategic Mission Ready

The PV2535 delivers a class of ISR performance that redefines what strategic missions can demand.

By combining 35″-class optical power with a 25″ system footprint, it achieves levels of stand-off range, resolution, and endurance that legacy architectures cannot approach—without forcing operators into oversized turrets, bespoke aircraft, or single-mission platforms.

This allows strategic ISR capability to be deployed across high-endurance aircraft and persistent aerostat platforms alike, fundamentally expanding where and how top-tier sensing can be applied.

FAST Platform Advantage

At extreme zoom and stand-off ranges, stabilization is no longer a feature—it is the limiting factor.

This is where FAST fundamentally separates the PV2535 from every legacy system.

FAST’s 6-DOF active stabilization architecture preserves image clarity and target lock at zoom levels and ranges where conventional gimbal designs fail.

By eliminating the inner gimbal ring and maximizing usable payload aperture, FAST enables the PV2535 to operate in performance regimes that are not achievable with traditional 25″ architectures.

The result is sustained, actionable imagery at distances and altitudes previously considered impractical for EO/IR systems.

Precision and Mission Integration

The PV2535 is engineered to turn extreme sensing power into decisive operational advantage.

An independent NFOV IR spotter operates alongside the primary long-range sensor, enabling simultaneous wide-area search and detailed target interrogation—maintaining custody even as targets move across vast areas.

Step-stare LOS-axis control and integrated high-accuracy geolocation preserve clarity and positional confidence at extended ranges, while full sensor data access ensures seamless integration into mission systems and multi-domain networks.

This combination delivers persistent, high-confidence intelligence at distances no other operational EO/IR system can sustain today.

Primary Mission Fit

The PV2535 is purpose-built for missions where extreme stand-off range, persistence, and uninterrupted custody are operational requirements—not aspirations.

It is optimized for strategic and national-scale ISR, including:

Extreme stand-off airborne surveillance at ranges beyond the reach of legacy EO/IR systems
High-altitude ISR supporting long-range identification, tracking, and cueing outside threat envelopes
Persistent maritime domain awareness, enabling continuous vessel detection and identification at the horizon and beyond
Long-endurance border and sovereign domain surveillance, maintaining custody over vast areas for extended periods
Persistent aerostat overwatch, where continuous stare, extreme zoom, and wide-area dominance are required without interruption

These missions are no longer constrained by aircraft size, turret class, or traditional platform dependencies. The PV2535 enables persistent, strategic ISR wherever endurance and coverage—not proximity—define success.

Operational Edge

ISR performance in a class of its own — exceeding legacy 25″ EO/IR systems by orders of magnitude in stand-off range, stability and usable resolution
35″-class optical power in a 25″ system footprint, enabling performance regimes not achievable with any current operational EO/IR platform
Extreme range and persistent custody without reliance on HALE-only aircraft or bespoke ISR platforms
Simultaneous wide-area search and precision interrogation, preserving awareness and decision speed at scale
Strategic-grade sensing across aircraft and persistent aerostat deployments, without platform lock-in
Modular, upgradeable architecture designed to evolve with sensors, networks, and mission demands
ITAR-free, enabling unrestricted sovereign deployment

The PV2535 does not extend the limits of legacy EO/IR systems. It replaces the limits altogether.
