Urals Optical Mechanical Plant (UOMZ) is presenting its new SON-730 optical observation system here at Farnborough International (Hall 1 Stand B13), showing it in real-time use on a target-mounted screen. According to director general Sergey Maksin, the development of this technology for civilian use has been a major priority for the Russian company over the past decade. SONs (their Russian acronym) are designed for day and night search, detection and identification of objects.

An important advantage of SONs is their capability to operate in a wide range of observation angles even when an aircraft is experiencing intense vibration or is landing. According to Maksin, UOMZ’s designers continue to improve the characteristics and reduce the size of its products.
