AEL Sistemas is a Brazilian company, located in Porto Alegre has dedicated itself to the design, development, manufacture, maintenance and logistics support of advanced military and space electronic systems for applications in air, maritime and terrestrial platforms. Capable of providing, designing and developing avionics, ground-based systems and systems for public security, the company also participates in various programs of the space industry.
Considered a center of excellence in defense technology, since 2001, AEL SISTEMAS S.A. is part of the Elbit Systems group, world leader in the defense segment. We are active in strategic projects of the Brazilian Armed Forces such as the Gripen NG, KC-390, Guarani and SISFRON - Integrated Border Monitoring System. Through advanced technologies and knowledge, modern infrastructure and systematic training, AEL produces cutting edge, reliable and innovative solutions, with the quality of its internationally accredited products and services.
Research and Development
At the defense systems technological center of AEL - a space of 10,000m², we produce cutting edge, reliable and innovating solutions. We continuously invest in technology and training of people with the commitment of developing the Country’s space and defense industry. The mastery of leading edge technologies and accumulated experience have enabled the company to integrate different types of systems in varied platforms, enhancing the operational capacity and efficiency of the missions.
The Avionics Software House (ASH), a pioneering project in Brazil, has trained Brazilian technicians to integrate and develop software for the most modern avionics systems intended for civil and military, fixed and rotary wing aircraft. Currently, this group is composed of more than 30 professionals in a continuous process of absorption and transfer of knowledge, which enables the development of technology at the company’s headquarters in Brazil, in combination with the engineers of AEL that is working in Israel.
"TerrainFollowing" is a terrain following guidance system that enables low-altitude tactical flights following the contour of the relief in a safe manner. The development of the system was supported by FINEP, and in this project, hundreds of hours of actual flight have been performed in simulated environments, which prove the success of this innovative Brazilian project.
AEL Sistemas developed the first Brazilian inertial navigation system for aircraft, a great technological leap that allows Brazilian independence in inertial navigation systems. The EGI allows the obtaining of a stabilized reference plane from gyroscopes and accelerometers, being able to determine movement in 3 axes.
The X-86 is a high performance VPX standard embedded computer module for aeronautical applications, which is already used as a mission computer for the aircraft KC-390. With hardware, software and mechanical designs developed by Brazilian engineers from AEL Sistemas, it was possible to increase the mechanical design capacity and production of printed circuit boards.
