Business Wire
Era a.s., a subsidiary of SRA International, Inc. (NYSE: SRX),
today announced it has been selected by Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH
(DFS) to deploy a multilateration and ADS-B surveillance solution
at the Berlin-Brandenburg International Airport. The award
announcement follows Era’s recent successful installations for DFS
at Munich and Hamburg.
The Berlin-Brandenburg International Airport, scheduled to open
in 2012, will become the German capital’s primary commercial
airport and will serve its roughly 3.4 million residents. Era’s
next-generation surveillance solution will be integrated into the
airport’s advanced-surface movement guidance and control system and
was chosen to ensure that the surface operations run as safely and
efficiently as possible.
“DFS’s selection of Era, after Era’s successful deliveries in
Munich and Hamburg, reinforces its position as a leader in next
generation surveillance solutions,” said Era Systems Corporation
Senior Vice President Kevin Layton. “MSS by Era provides high
accuracy, coverage and reliability – and does so with extremely low
acquisition and maintenance costs. This makes it the ideal
surveillance solution for both new and existing airports.”
MSS by Era is a scalable solution, allowing for comprehensive
surveillance of all areas of an airport’s surface. This flexibility
also allows airports to quickly address surveillance needs brought
about by increased demand or airport structural changes.
Era a.s. provides next-generation air traffic management tools
that address core challenges like safety, efficiency, profitability
and functionality. Its innovative use of proven next-generation
technologies, like multilateration and ADS-B, help air navigation
service providers (ANSPs) and airport operators ease capacity
constraints; improve airspace and ground space efficiencies; and
reduce costs. SRA does not announce sales amounts for individual
Era contracts; Era contracts for their air traffic management
business typically range in value of $1-2 million, and may be up to
$5 million.
