Key Products
The Qioptiq product range covers the complete spectrum of requirements for electro-optical modules and complex optical components for Airborne, Land, and Naval applications.

Infrared Search and Track
A very high performance multi role, electro-optical system designed to operate in unusually hostile environments in the far IR waveband. The smallest and most compact in its class

Multi-waveband Missile and Laser Warners
Designed for a number of applications where the optical modules must be compact and lightweight, and where “Stray light” must be minimised.

UAV’s
Extensive range of short compact high performance range of continuous zoom telescopes such as Zulu, with a magnification range of x2.5 to x10.

Gimbal mounted Observation and Weapon Aiming for Rotary and Fixed-Wing Platforms
Razor.  Compact “Folded” imaging optical modules operating in both the mid and long-IR wavelengths. Capable of being configured for a large range of different detectors.

Conformal and Non-conformal Complex Windows and Domes
Suitable for multiple applications such as navigational and target acquisition pods.

Fire Control and Observation E/O Modules for AFV’s
A range of optical modules for a variety of AFV’s. Designed to meet the tough environmental requirements of these platforms where very tight bore-sight retention under all conditions is essential.

Primary Missile Guidance Optical Modules for both Vehicle and Shoulder-launched Missiles
Sole supplier to a major US programme where to date 1500+ IR telescopes have been delivered. Qioptiq also provide the optics for a number of  “Command line-of-sight units” (CLU’s), and are the ONLY alternative manufacturer qualified to supply these items.

Missile Seekers and Domes for both Ground-launched and Air-drop Munitions
Sole supplier to a number of major “Primes” both in the US and Europe. Our innovative approach to design and manufacture has meant that Qioptiq is able to offer unique solutions to these demanding requirements.

IR Objectives for Thermal Weapon Sights

We provide a range of uncooled IR objectives for a number of major US and European programmes. Designed to be extremely cost competitive but retaining very high “Key” performance parameters. Qioptiq has the capability to produce in excess of 1000 per month.

Compact High-performance Eyepiece Modules for TWS
The smallest most compact and lightest eyepiece in its class, yet providing extremely high resolution.

Target Acquisition and Weapon Aiming Electro Optical Modules for Surface Ships
Very high performance large aperture long-wave Electro Optical afocal telescope for a number of programmes including “Close-in weapon system” for fleet protection.

IR and Visible Telescopes and Relays
Complete range of Electro Optical modules for the latest non-hull penetrating optronic masts. Designed and manufactured to withstand the exacting requirements of submarine applications.
