., a Finmeccanica Company, has announced that it has entered
into an international reseller agreement with Acal BFi - a
division of Acal plc (FTSE:ACL) - to distribute its
family of advanced military and commercial thermal imaging
systems to security and surveillance Original Equipment
Manufacturers (OEM) and Integrators throughout Europe.
The relationship with Acal BFi represents the first
significant reseller programme in Europe for these DRS
systems. They are developed by the Reconnaissance,
Surveillance and Target Acquisition (RSTA) Group, which has a
rich history of leadership with high-quality and
cost-effective thermal imaging systems. Acal BFi is a
pan-European technical distributor providing specialist
design support, manufacturing and test services across a
range of products which includes semiconductors, RF and
wireless, frequency control, electromechanical, power
management and board-level systems for the electronic and
photonic markets.
DRS Technologies' RSTA thermal imaging systems produce sharp,
high-quality images through smoke, dust, haze, light fog and
in complete darkness. Rather than relying on light,
they detect the infrared (heat) waves emitted by every
person, object and structure, at any temperature.
"We welcome our new partnership with Acal BFi, and we are
confident that the relationship will provide RSTA with a
strong international presence as we introduce our
industry-leading thermal technology to Europe's military and
commercial markets," said RSTA President Terry Murphy. "Acal
BFi's presence throughout Europe, combined with their
specialist engineers teams, in-house manufacturing and test
services, will be important resources for OEMs and
integrators who want to incorporate the latest imaging
technology into their products."
"The addition of advanced technologies, from one of the
world's leading manufacturers of thermal infrared imaging
systems, allows Acal BFi to offer customers greater
flexibility and choice, and strengthens our ability to
support customers in developing next-generation imaging
systems for the military and security markets," explains
Philippe Gruson, President Electronics Division, Acal
BFi.
Acal BFi has operating companies in the U.K., Netherlands,
Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Scandinavia.
