S-PLANE offers robust and flexible Ground Control Station (GCS) solutions for manned, unmanned and optionally piloted aircraft systems. These solutions are tailored for a variety of configurations, including fixed, containerised, vehicle-mounted, and man-portable GCS, and even Aircraft Control Stations (ACS) installed to manned aircraft. We deliver optimised and comprehensive mission and payload situational awareness to both aircrew and remote operators. This is made possible through the integration of S-PLANE’s ParagonC2 and ParagonISR operator software, as well as seamless connectivity between the GCS, UAVs, Air Traffic Control (ATC), and operators and pilots in manned aircraft.
ParagonC2 serves as the central command and control (C2) hub, enabling feature-rich mission planning, mission execution, and aircraft management. ParagonISR supports efficient ISR payload management and control and delivers real-time situational intelligence. Together, these systems enable coordinated, informed, and agile mission execution.
Built on a layered architecture, S-PLANE’s Ground Control Solutions provide the communication, routing, simulation, command and control, and piloting functions required to enable seamless, scalable solutions for your modern GCS.
This network of ground control solutions supports a range of communication methods including S-PLANE’s TRACKER+ with LOSCom, and BVLOS with SatCom, ensuring reliable connectivity across various operational environments. Routing is managed by the Ground Data Terminal (GDT), while simulation modules enable system testing, mission rehearsal, and operator training without requiring live flights.
Each S-PLANE Ground Control Console (GCC) can be configured as a Remote Piloting Station (RPS), a Payload Operator Station (POS) or a Flight Test Engineering (FTE) console, making it adaptable to a wide range of operational demands. Primary Flight Controls (PFCs), and hard I/O are interfaced to our innovative Remote Piloting Units (RPUs), providing high-resolution situational awareness and responsive control interfaces. RPUs and Paragon appliances also interface directly to the GCC for an optimised and safe experience throughout all phases of flight.
