Stores management

Stores Management

Creating an effective weaponisation solution is a complex and multi-functional integration activity that requires specialist domain knowledge and experience. Our team brings years of development, integration, and trials expertise across our portfolio of solutions and programmes to ensure you have a safe and reliable stores management solution.

We have fielded many Stores Management Systems for a wide range of platforms supporting a broad range of stores/weapons types including air-to air, air-to-ground, anti-surface, and anti-submarine.

Our avionics team is continually innovating and encompassing emerging technologies to improve the value we provide to our customers, including new payloads, Crew Machine Interfaces, performance improvements, and options for remotely-operated Unmanned Air Vehicles and ground-based launch solutions. Recent innovation has delivered our Rapid Stores Integration Capability allowing for agility and speed for platform integrators to introduce modified or new store types onto an aircraft. For the uncrewed market, our Safe Weapon Control Protocol, developed using the latest Model Driven System Engineering techniques provides system integrators with the flexibility to introduce our solutions onto an uncrewed aircraft system at pace.

We are proud of our successful track record of safety critical engineering within the weapons integration domain and have been recognised under the UK Military Aviation Authority’s Design Approved Organisation Scheme, as an approved supplier of Stores Management Systems, armament test systems, and other avionics related equipment.
