BCS USA launches BRONCO II C4ISR aircraft
Bronco Combat Systems (BCS) USA has launched the Bronco II precision strike and tactical C4ISR aircraft, Paramount Group announced on 22 February.
The Bronco II is based on the Advanced High-Performance Reconnaissance Light Aircraft (AHRLAC). The two-crew aircraft is capable of carrying a wide range of weapons, sensors and systems for extended airborne mission operations. It uses an open system architecture allowing for the rapid incorporation of current and emerging systems to provide better mission flexibility and adaptability.
The aircraft’s internal interchangeable multi-mission system bay allows a single airframe to be easily and rapidly re-configured to perform multiple roles, incorporating high-performance targeting sensors, network communication systems, precision weapons, an electronic self-protection suite, and mission planning systems.
The aircraft is able to operate for extended periods in remote theatres with minimal infrastructure and a small logistics and maintenance footprint.
Bronco Combat Systems consists of Paramount Group USA, Fulcrum Concepts and Aerospace Development Corporation.
