Pramacom-HT Unveils Lightweight ISR and Communication Pod at Farnborough Airshow
Czech company Pramacom-HT has introduced a new lightweight pod for airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and communications at the Farnborough International Airshow 2026. The Deployable ISR and communications Pod (D-POD) is a modular system that can convert standard aircraft or UAVs into ISR, search and rescue, or communications platforms. The system uses commercial off-the-shelf products and IP technology for interoperability. The D-POD, weighing 20 kg, includes an underfuselage pod-mounted container, a satellite communications fairing, and a portable onboard computing unit. It has been integrated into the Bristell B8 ultralight aircraft, offering a long operational range and cost-effective flight hours.
