Elbit Systems has introduced new capabilities to its Condor long-range oblique photography (LOROP) system, including the incorporation of artificial intelligence and more types of electro-optical/infrared sensors. The new Condor MS integrates visible and near infrared (IR), medium-wave IR, and short-wave IR cameras into the system, which alongside new algorithms and geolocation capabilities provide it with the ability to identify multiple targets at higher rates.

According to Elbit (Chalet 198), the system provides a combination of multi-spectral capability, effective stabilization, and auto image enhancements to extend the coverage of the system in both day and night and adverse weather conditions. The company is the prime on a number of LOROP efforts that have used the Condor because of the low weight and size of the system, Elbit said. LOROP is integrated on aircraft such as the F-16 A/B/C/D/I, F-4, Sukhoi Su-30 and Boeing 737.
