A new complex of long-range thermal imaging reconnaissance for the Russian military was developed by specialists of the Astron Optical and Mechanical Design Bureau, part of the Shvabe holding. At the moment, the complex has already been tested and has reached the stage of creating the first samples.

According to the general director of the organization Vladimir Popov, the complex of long-range thermal imaging intelligence with intelligent analytics was named "Checkpoint-4T". To get a more complete picture, a special drone with a thermal imager is integrated into the complex. The complex also includes ground-based thermal imaging stations capable of seeing a person at a distance of 800 meters, and equipment - up to 2 km. The drone sees targets at a range of up to 6 km. All information is displayed on the monitor screen, and the built-in video analytics highlights the detected objects to help the operator.

(...) for both optical and thermal imaging devices, there is always a dilemma - either you have a large field of view, or you provide high image detail (...) We thought that integrating a "flying thermal imager" into a ground-based surveillance system would allow us to solve this dilemma in a non-standard and rather elegant way

- TASS quotes Popov's words.

Moreover, the UAV thermal imaging reconnaissance UAV400T was integrated into the complex, which is mass-produced and has been very actively used in the SVO zone since last year. It was also developed by the Astron Design Bureau specifically for use in special operations, it is a quadcopter with a Russian thermal imager installed, designed for reconnaissance.
