FocusFlite®
Airborne Digital Moving Map System
Turkiye's first and only field proven integrated/mobile digital moving map and mission planning system solution is in use on more than 75 platforms.
FocusFlite GS
One planning solution for all platforms
FocusFlite® GS (Ground Station) helps pilots to review/prepare their mission plans with high precision and accuracy thanks to the 2D/3D planning capabilities it provides for different platforms. With its extensible and adaptable mission planning infrastructure, platform-specific capabilities such as performance calculations can be easily added. Intuitive, fast and responsive human-machine interface of the program has been developed, supported by usability tests.
FocusFlite® GS capabilities can be used on consoles, desktop stations and portable platforms.
