GTD is a tech firm founded in 1987. It specialises in critical systems for missions in aerospace, defence and security. Its main asset is the talent and skill of its over 200 engineers, built on years of participating in cutting-edge programmes based on state-of-the-art technologies. In security and defence, GTD offers a broad portfolio of products and solutions: critical SW development and integrated solutions for border control and surveillance, including the following highlights:
– Sniper detection.
– Wireless optical comms.
– Electro-optical systems for surveillance and targeting.
– DO-178/254 certification.
– On-board SW.
– UGVs for surveillance in hostile environments.
– SW for simulators & CBTs.
– Flight Test Instrumentation.
– C4I, COMINT and IMINT systems.
- Electro-Optical Systems
Advanced ISTAR systems: Flexible SW, high-performance operator console, GPS/INU/ DC, meteorological station, target tracking, IR camera, TV/ LLTV, laser rangefinder, laser designator, stabilised pan and tilt head. Optical Comms: open space, LED NIR voice and data link. Ideal for scenarios in which RF cannot be used. Sniper detection systems: class 1 laser rangefinder able to identify optics up to 2 km, providing range or GPS coordinates. - Simulators
Development of models or complete systems for:
– Full Flight Simulators (FFS).
– Computer-Based Trainers (CBT).
– Computer-Generated Forces (CGF).
– Mission Planning Systems (MPS).
– Full Simulated Cockpits.
– Standards (HLA/DIS). - Avionics
Critical DO-178 compliant SW development for on-board avionics and mission systems. DO-178 & DO-254 certification support. References: IFF (A400M), MMC (A400M), MIDS (A400M, MRTT, FSTA, MP, EF-2000, NH-90, TIGER), AMS (A400M), CAMU (EF-2000), AC (EF2000), DAC (EF-2000), WC (TIGER), Tail BOOM (MRTT), FITS, etc. - Flight Test Instrumentation
GTD supports flight test campaigns by:
– Outfitting the required instrumentation on the aircraft.
– Developing SW tools for real-time data visualisation and post-flight analysis.
– Configuring, managing and operating telemetry and recording equipment (onboard and ground).
– Managing, archiving and distributing all test-related documentation.
– Providing flight testing engineers. - Command and Control Systems
GTD implements control centres and related solutions:
– Systems and SW applications.
– Design and implementation of complete control centres.
– Updating and improvements for existing control centres.
– Addition of new functions: decision-making support.
And extensive experience gained in multiple scenarios:
– Space port and satellite ground segment.
– C4ISR security and defence.
– Research facilities (particle accelerators).
