Thales will be showcasing its expertise in the aerospace sector at the Aero India air show. As an international electronics and systems group serving defence, aerospace and security markets, Thales is a worldwide leader in prime contracting, systems integration and equipment manufacturing. The Group is a world leader in both civil and military applications of aerospace technologies and services including avionics, satellite, radio and data communications, radars, mission planning, air command and control, air traffic management, training and simulation, in-flight entertainment systems (IFE) and electro optic sensors.
The Thales stand features sections on civil aviation, military aviation, aviation services and security as well as a section that tells the story of Thales' involvement in major cooperation projects such as Galileo and Sesar.
Within the military aviation section, along with illustrations of Thales' offer for the Mirage 2000-5 upgrade in India, exhibits on stand include an interactive fully functional TopOwl headset for the MiG 29, which provides all relevant information right in front of the pilot's eyes (symbols, warnings, images) without having to look down at the instrument panel - a key element to ensuring flight safety during tactical missions.
