One serie, two products to increase capacityUltimate Performance and Reliability

The 3D Multi-Beam Echo Sounder has been developed upon

request of French Armament Secretary for multipurpose

applications such as mine and obstacle avoidance, real-time

mapping and navigation, and Rapid Environment Assessment

(REA).

The FLS Series is available in two versions :

• FSL 150, very compact packaging, for portable and

lightweight integration, for patrol ships or USVs integration.

• FLS 60, for large ships or submarines integration.

The FLS Series is fully mission configurable.

The FLS benefits from iXblue expertise in navigation and imaging

iXblue is recognized throughout the industry for its inertial

navigation systems which has revolutionized navigation in

the last decade, its seabed mapping systems with unrivaled

performances whether in shallow or in very deep water, and

its Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS)

products, onboard all the French Navy vessels and submarines.

All FLS information is updated in a user-friendly ECDIS MMI

which facilitates the operator’s work. Furthermore, its has a high

level of automatization, and can detect, characterize and track

targets automatically, although operators are able to manually

set up target trackers.
