D CoMPASS
Compact Multi-Purpose Advanced Stabilized System
Elbit Systems of America and ElOp have teamed to combine
their expertise and capability in the design and production
of electro-optical payloads for intelligence, surveillance,
targeting, and reconnaissance for the US marketplace. The
CoMPASS D is the most advanced version in our family of
midsized payloads.
Proven Design With Extensive Experience
With more than 250 systems supplied in over 17 countries,
CoMPASS is a proven, high-performance EO/IR Payload
System.
Modular Design Allows Flexible
Multi-Sensor Configuration
CoMPASS IV can be configured with a variety of sensors to
optimize your mission specific objectives. Optional sensors
include an eyesafe laser rangefinder, daylight TV, spotter
scope, laser area illuminator, laser pointer, and diode
pumped laser designator. A step-stare function allows the
capture of full-frame digital stills, which are georegistered
at the pixel level and can be mosaic’d for high resolution
area coverage.
