ERA (with its WAYPOINT as the Prime) has been awarded a contract to implement a WAM and ATM system covering the Terminal Maneuvering Area of Sulaimaniya International Airport in KRG. ERA delivered a composite multilateration and ADS-B system for surveillance of aircraft approaching the airport, covering the lower flight level to an extension of 50 NM.
ERA supplied eight (8) ground stations of its tried and tested MSS (Multi-sensor Surveillance System) and the ATM system ERIS. The contract was signed by the prime contractor, Waypoint and Sulaimaniya International Airport Authority in December 2017 as a result of a tendering process organized by the end user – Sulaimaniya International Airport.
MSS by ERA is a modular system easily adaptable to any terminal and wide area requirements as well as all terrain challenges. Due to their resistance to adverse weather conditions, low power consumption and their minimal impact on the environment, the WAM sensors can be easily mounted in the Kurdistan mountains and will therefore be able to cover the TMA of the airport, which is located in the middle of the valley.
