CAT-EYE is an infrared & electro-optical search & track (IRST/EOST) developed by Navayelle Systems for use on Inyurstan fighter aircraft. The system was first developed
CAT-EYE I
A simplistic infrared system, the CAT EYE I is in use with Inyursta's AC-88 Taipan Block II Air-Superiority Fighter and AC-22M Mussurana 5th Gen Air-Superiority Fighter. It is optimized to to detect and track fast-moving targets in adverse weather conditions, including low-altitude "heat-spot" heavy environments. It can also be used to track IR emissions-heavy targets such as ballistic missiles and supersonic bombers at longer ranges.
CAT-EYE II
CAT-EYE II is an advanced electro-optical system currently in use exclusively on the AC/A-92 Night Adder 5th Gen Multirole Fighter. It allows for ~270o, multiple-steradian detection and tracking of both aerial and ground targets in extremely adverse conditions. Multiple spectrum options are available in a single system, allowing the pilot to select between "palettes" in order to both reduce distraction from specific heat sources and better distinguish targets from clutter.
It can be used to track small-scale missile and gun firing, such as short-range SAMs and artillery guns.
CAT-EYE MAAL
CAT-EYE MAAL (Modèle D'Ameliare Aérocraft Legadaçéa) or "Legacy Aircraft Upgrade Model", is an externally-mounted pod version for use in Inyursta's 3.5th Generation AC/A-83 Bocaracá Multirole Fighters, allowing the aging fighters a short-range IRST option.
