Integrated Naval Electro-Optical Surveillance & Targeting System (INEOSTS)

Naval vessels operating at sea must rely almost exclusively on their own surveillance resources, as they cannot rely on shore-based surveillance owing to the distance factor, and as airborne surveillance is not always available.

Naval surveillance is absolutely essential for the vessel’s situational awareness.

In addition to their surveillance Radar systems, naval vessels normally employ electro-optical surveillance payloads.

ACS presents INEOSTS – Integrated Naval Electro-Optical Surveillance & Targeting System.

INEOSTS is a state-of-the-art day/night naval surveillance and targeting system based on a stabilized electro-optical payload and designed to interface with the naval vessel’s Radar system, navigation system and weapon systems.

INEOSTS is easy to install, operate and maintain. It was designed and built to operate efficiently under extreme sea conditions.

Fully operational on board various naval vessel types, INEOSTS may be customized to comply with the client’s specific requirements by incorporating any one of the electro-optical surveillance payloads from the ACS range: VMS-ESOP (for long-range surveillance), VESPA (for medium-range surveillance) or MINI-VESPA (for short-range surveillance).

These dedicated electro-optical payloads enable INEOSTS to perform naval surveillance and reconnaissance missions as well as target acquisition, fire management and damage assessment missions, self-defense, coastal defense and maritime patrol missions, search and rescue and economic zone supervision missions.

A naval surveillance setup based on the electro-optical payloads from the ACS range (VMS-ESOP, VESPA or MINI-VESPA) offers a high-performance, cutting-edge naval surveillance and targeting solution.
