| UkSATSE improves surveillance coverage of Ukrainian airspace |
 Today, UkSATSE and THALES LAS FRANCE SAS, a leading innovator in artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, communications and cybersecurity, and the world’s largest manufacturer of communication, navigation and surveillance equipment with successful experience in the supply of ground-based sensor technologies to civil and military customers, signed a contract for the installation of a fast deployable Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) co-mounted with Monopulse Secondary Surveillance Radar (MSSR). This will ensure high-quality and efficient provision of air navigation services as part of the gradual recovery of air traffic in the skies over Ukraine.
The project is being implemented within the framework of the Grant Agreement on assistance in restoring and maintaining critical infrastructure and priority sectors of our country's economy signed between the Government of Ukraine and the Government of the French Republic which identifies THE SUPPLY AND INSTALLATION OF PSR/MSSR RADAR FOR APPROACH AND EN-ROUTE SURVEILLANCE manufactured by THALES LAS FRANCE SAS as one of the priority projects for UkSATSE.
Andrii Yarmak, Director of UkSATSE: «We are actively preparing for the gradual resumption of civil aviation flights in the airspace of Ukraine, and we care about the efficiency and quality of air navigation services. Currently, the restoration of the surveillance infrastructure and radar coverage is one of the priority areas for UkSATSE, as a significant part of the Ukrainian air navigation infrastructure was destroyed during the war.
The installation of the new radar will significantly improve the surveillance coverage in a certain part of Ukrainian airspace and will be one of the important steps in the development of air navigation infrastructure».
This project is included in the Unified Portfolio of Public Investment Projects registered in the Unified Digital Integrated Information and Analytical System for Management of the Reconstruction of Real Estate, Construction, and Infrastructure (DREAM Ecosystem) as a priority in the civil aviation sector.
Much of Ukraine’s air navigation services infrastructure has suffered significant damage. In particular, radar surveillance has been the most vulnerable, with a large number of fixed ground-based radars damaged since the early days of the war. Therefore, the new radar will be installed to replace the one destroyed by the missile attacks of the russian federation.
The PSR/MSSR installation project will be implemented in 2025-2026. |
