GA-ASI`s Lynx Multi-mode Radar provides high-resolution, photographic-quality imagery through clouds, rain, dust, smoke, and fog. Designed to meet the onboard challenges of the Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) systems environment, the Lynx radar consumes minimal Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP) while delivering precision air-to-surface targeting accuracy and superb wide-area search capabilities. Lynx features Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Ground/Dismount Moving Target Indicator (GMTI/DMTI), and robust Maritime Wide Area Search (MWAS) modes. Lynx`s search modes provide the wide-area coverage for any integrated sensor suite, allowing for cross-cue to a narrow Field-of-View (FOV) Electro-optical/Infrared (EO/IR) sensor. 

Identifying and defeating Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) before they strike is one of today`s most pressing Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) challenges. The GA-ASI Highlighter system is an airborne electro-optical sensor package that locates potential IED threats and alerts ground forces for further onsite investigation. In addition, the extremely high‑resolution imaging system produces a wide range of other data products.

Highlighter Gen II maintains the same airborne sensor, analysis, and dissemination capabilities of Highlighter Gen I but allows missions to be conducted in either day or night conditions.  In addition, a Wescam MX-15HD Electro-optical/Infrared (EO/IR) sensor is included for Full-motion Video (FMV).

The Due Regard Radar (DRR) is an air-to-air radar being developed under company funding to meet the requirements envisioned to enable Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) to fly in International Airspace. The DRR is comprised of a two panel Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) Antenna and a Radar Electronics Assembly (REA) that give the RPA pilot the ability to detect and track aircraft across the same Field-of-View (FOV) as a manned aircraft. AESA technology allows DRR to track multiple targets while simultaneously continuing to scan for new aircraft. Flight tests of a pre-production DRR are underway on both a manned aircraft and a Predator B RPA.
