    Gorgon Stare

    Persistent Wide-Area Airborne Surveillance (WASS) System


    Gorgon Stare (GS) is a one-of-a-kind Persistent Wide-Area Airborne Surveillance (WAAS)
    System. A Multi-Mission/Multi-Mode Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)
    platform with a unique Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) toolset providing wide-area (city-sized),
    continuous stare coverage. Currently fielded on an unmanned aerial system, GS feeds
    simultaneous reports to multiple individual independent taskings. Specifically tailored for ISR
    operations in forward tactical areas, GS can provide a wide-area overwatch with ten (10)
    focused video feeds sent directly to individual users on the ground. The sensor is packaged in
    a turret maximizing the overall ISR imaging capability in a networked imagery distribution
    system. High resolution, real-time motion video of activities of interest are collected to supply
    Pattern-of-Life and Post-Event Forensics.
