Mistral Detection - a leading provider of solutions for military, law-enforcement, bomb, SWAT, and tactical teams - provides advanced systems for divers to two major Latin American countries.



DNS300™ SONAR is an advanced sonar system that was provided to a Latin American Navy to assist with underwater search and rescue missions. The handheld system with advanced navigation capabilities provides accurate underwater documentation, navigation sensors, and data. Effectively detecting large and small underwater objects, it is suitable for EOD and Search and Rescue divers with low magnetic signatures. Simplifying the diving profile and overall maneuverability, the system has no external cables, with a single enclosure containing all sensors and batteries: sonar, compass, pressure gauge, and GPS. Weighing less than 17 lbs., it has neutral buoyancy in water. Accurate target positioning for latitude and longitude are supplied, as well as full data recording and logging, with internal batteries providing 5 hours of operation.



DNS 300™ NAV NAVIGATION SYSTEM will be provided to the police of a large South American country to help maintain security during a major event. The system – which weighs less than 15.4 lbs. and can be handheld or easily mounted on underwater vehicles – has an intuitive user interface and a variety of sensors. Providing a fully integrated autonomous navigation system with minimum exposure, the DNS300 NAV's single enclosure contains all sensors and batteries, DVL, compass, pressure gauge, and GPS with no external cables. It is highly accurate, providing precise location regardless of currents. Enhancing diver confidence while diving, the NAV is user-friendly, includes a vivid display which is easy to read in all water conditions, and has a highly intuitive user interface. Providing diving preparation and debriefing, its internal batteries enable 8 hours of operation.



According to Roey Bahat, General Manager, "We are pleased to be providing our underwater solutions to two leading Latin American countries. Many of these solutions have been successfully supplied to a number of other countries over the past few years. Our systems for divers are among the most advanced in the world in their fields, easy to use, lightweight, and especially cost-effective. The South American market is very important to us; we are already active in it – and are working to expand into new areas as well."
