Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance (ISR) &
Joint Tactical Air Control (JTAC)

Diffraction LTD develops advanced products to support ISR missions. Those products include out of band and fused night visions imagers, optical beacons, and laser illuminators and pointers. In addition we are developing digitally integrated night vision systems that merge night vision with target tracking and intelligence collection.

Diffraction LTD's engineers are experts at SWIR and fused night vision. We began building SWIR imagers for the U.S. government back in 2002. Our first fused imager (SWIR and Gen 3 I2) was demonstrated in 2003 and delivered to the U.S. government in 2004. For a brief outline of the advantages of SWIR night vision, click here. A description of some of our night vision products can be found here.

Diffraction LTD manufactures beacons to aid in ISR and TTL missions. We produce beacons in a wide variety of form factors in spectral bands including UV, NIR, SWIR, MWIR, and LWIR. An introduction to our beacon products can be found here.

Diffraction LTD manufactures laser illuminators and pointers. We develop lasers for all platforms including handheld, weapon, and UAV mount. An introduction to our laser illuminator and pointer products can be found here.

Our latest work in the area of ISR is the development of advanced digital night vision technology that combines multiple functions in a single piece of equipment. For a brief introduction to our capabilities in this area, click here.

Diffraction LTD's engineers are currently developing a number of miniature laser pointers and designators to support Joint Tactical Air Control (JTAC) operations. Please contact us directly for details.
