Indra has acquired new contracts for deploying its radar surveillance systems in China. The company will implement 5 systems to reinforce control of the Shanghai air space, providing surveillance services to the East China Region.

Likewise, the company will also deploy one surveillance systems in the middle south region and one more in Yinchuan and will expand the en-route control center in Xian. The global value of these contracts is approximately USD11 million.

Indra already has 30 Secondary Radars in operation in this country deployed during the last 8 years, which currently control approximately 60% of the Chinese sky.

Now, East China Air Traffic Management Bureau (ATMB), one of the seven regions into which the ATMB of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) is divided, has entrusted Indra the implementation of another five secondary Mode S radars, the most advanced aircraft identification technology. These systems will reinforce control of the East China sky, improving traffic flow that flies in this region.
