Senop has received a significant order from Saab for the delivery of its Senop Advanced Fire Control Device Thermal Imager (AFCD TI), highlighting the company’s ability to support NATO countries in enhancing their fighting capabilities on the modern battlefield.
The AFCD TI is one of the first intelligent sights designed for the Carl-Gustaf M4 and M3 weapons systems. It integrates all performance-critical features into a single casing, making it the only system qualified for both the Carl-Gustaf M4 and M3. This advanced thermal imager offers military operators a range of capabilities that enhance accuracy and efficiency in combat situations.
Amid a high demand for military equipment, Senop’s ability to produce large volumes of high-quality products has proven increasingly valuable. “For the past four to five years, Senop has grown significantly, which has allowed us to invest strongly in production capability and research and development,” said Aki Korhonen, President of Senop.
“We are proud to support our customer with the Senop AFCD TI. The order we received is a clear indication and proof of our expertise and ability to deliver innovative solutions that meet our customer´s requirements and enhance operational firepower,” Korhonen continues.
For the Carl-Gustaf, the AFCD TI offers several performance-enhancing functionalities in one device. This is a significant difference compared to other solutions currently on the market, which utilize the traditional day sight and Clip-On night optics combination. The state-of-the-art optronics, ballistic calculation and communication with the most modern rounds result in extremely good first round hit probability for both moving and stationary targets. Depending on the conditions, the operator may use a day camera, a thermal camera, or a combined fusion image to detect, identify and recognize targets in the battlefield. The AFCD TI is the lightest fire control system for Carl-Gustaf on the market with all the capabilities mentioned above. The device weighs only 1.7 kg and is designed and built to meet the highest usability requirements.
Senop is a trusted Finnish provider of high-performance night vision devices and demanding system integration services as well as critical communications solutions for the defence and security sector. Senop’s mission is to enable reliable situational awareness as well as increased firepower and mobility even in the most extreme conditions for their customers.
