Precision Guidance Seekers

Vertically integrated seeker technologies

Leonardo specializes in the manufacture of Precision Guidance Seekers, or Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) I2R detectors that are designed for high performance, low-cost imaging in the 3 - 5μm or 9-12μm waveband and provide the highest environmental integrity along with the superior performance of focal plane detectors.

We have proven experience to work closely with customers and to create new concepts that can be developed into cost effective and high-performance seeker solutions for a wide variety of weapon systems designs.
