Star SAFIRE® HLD Family
The First True Family of HD Laser Designation Systems
First and Only All-Digital, Full High Definition System
The world's first and only all-digital, full High Definition system provides superior image stabilization, ultra long range imaging performance, true metadata embedded in the digital video, all with laser designation and rangefinder. The Star SAFIRE 380-HLD also provides the ability to operate continuously in all conditions—even while sitting on the tarmac with no airflow.

BENEFITS
- The only all-digital, Full HD system in a single LRU for ease of installation and integration; no junction boxes required
- High bandwidth HD-SDI (aka SMPTE-292M) video channels with symbology overlays comply with all government HD standards, providing full 1080P, 720P and other formats
- Full high definition mega-pixel resolution imagery from all sensors for superior range and imaging performance
- Combines long range ISR with targeting capabilities for real time situation awareness & ability for tactical response
- Sensor and geospatial data is fully embedded within the digital video stream – no need for dedicated ports or external boxes
- See more than others can see using the optional SWIR short wave infrared payload for expanded multi-spectral day and night imaging
- Combine important spectral information from IR & color or SWIR sensors for enhanced results; extremely valuable when limited to single video channel downlinks
- High-magnification optics extend detection range to the horizon without sacrificing wide FOV situational awareness
- Analog video installations will benefit from the HD’s high resolution digital sensors and high-quality optics
- View and track ground locations using the fully-embedded IMU; follow moving targets with the multi-mode Autotracker
- Covertly illuminate wide areas, point out distant targets to other forces, and determine target distance and location
- Provides standardized wiring to all HD turrets in this family; and to external systems, making this family of systems completely interchangeable and interoperable
- All-weather design is qualified to the most demanding requirements of MIL-STD-810 and 461
