CNC Technologies has delivered a completed Bell 505 with a full airborne mission suite for the Nebraska State Patrol (NSP). Installed by aircraft integrator AeroBrigham of Decatur, Texas, the state-of-the-art mission suite provides the NSP with a comprehensive patrol, surveillance and communications solution that is fully interoperable with the agency’s existing aircraft and technology infrastructure.
The project builds upon CNC’s experience providing Law Enforcement solutions for the Bell 505, having provided the tactical airborne mission suite for the Fort Worth Police Department Bell 505, as well as a microwave downlink solutions for the Omaha Police Department Bell 505 including CNC.LIVE. CNC.LIVE is CNC’s proprietary defense-grade online portal for hosting, viewing and sharing real-time aerial downlink footage from multiple aircraft and drones in a central location.
By incorporating an L3/Wescam MX10 imager, Shotover/Churchill Systems moving map, Macro Blue monitor, Trakka TLX searchlight and Troll Systems microwave downlink system to the new mission suite, CNC has developed a customized solution tailored to NSP’s specific law enforcement needs. Air crews will be able to utilise the solution to stream uninterrupted HD video and data from the aircraft to commanders and officers on the ground, utilising the agency’s existing Troll Systems microwave downlink infrastructure. Commenting on the announcement Lt. Brian Petersen of the Nebraska State Patrol said “The CNC team has delivered a cutting-edge law enforcement mission equipment package for our new Bell 505, CNC is also providing ongoing training and 24/7 support for the new mission suite, and we look forward to our on-going partnership with them in support of our public safety mission.”
