"Strait Flush" Upgrade SURN CZ SURN vehicle upgrade starts with repair of chassis and superstructure. The original equipment is subsequently replaced by new subsystems and cable trees. New units are installed into modified original frames. This huge replacement allows optimization on system level, performance and reliability improvement. Commander's and fire control radar operator's consoles are designed to reduce complexity of operation and the operators´s load. Operators do decision and setting tasks, while routine tasks are performed by software. All units include built-in test equipment (BITE) for easier maintenance and repair. All BITE reports are collected and presented on commander's console. Main Upgrade Benefits Includes Easier Operation, reduced crew load Improved Parameters of Signal and Data Processing Improved Performance of Day/Night Vision Equipment Increased ECCM Capabilities Decreased effects of deceptive Jammers Angle of Jammer Indication Digital data link to superior center Mk XII IFF Interrogator integration New Missile: Aspide 2000 |
