FlyingFish™ is Horizon Technologies’ 3rd Generation Airborne Satellite
Monitoring System (ASMS). It enables governments to passively monitor
satellite communications from airborne ISR platforms. FlyingFish™ is a UK
Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) product, and is non-ITAR.
The main advantage of FlyingFish™ as an airborne system is increased interception ranges up to 400 km or 250 nm (altitude and environment dependent) of the satellite terminal uplink due to better line of sight. FlyingFish™ can also be used for vehicular and shipborne applications.
FlyingFish™ 3rd Generation (S) is able to monitor Iridium, Thuraya and IsatPhone Pro SAT phones. The system is capable of monitoring a total of 32 duplex channels. The system now has a full remote control option via datalink/ethernet. Due to the powerful embedded processor in FlyingFish™, users are now able to run their
own tactical mission software on FlyingFish™, and no longer need a separate LRU.
