Electro-optic specialists Controp has completed deliveries of its iSea-40HD maritime electro-optical/infrared payload to the Vietnamese Navy under the terms of a contract announced in November 2017.
The sensor system will be integrated onto an undisclosed navy vessel, and is a follow on to a previous order from Hanoi that saw a different Controp payload delivered for integration on another vessel type three years ago.
The 29kg iSea-40HD has a thermal camera with continuous optical zoom, a full HD day camera, and four gimbals for increased stabilisation, while an additional laser pointer or laser range finder can also be added
