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 230o 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.

CAT-EYE MAAL

CAT-EYE MAAL (Modele D'Ameliare Aerocraft Legadacea) 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.
