• The first U.S. Department of Defense digital air traffic control tower is now live and in operation at the U.S. Army Garrison Katterbach in Ansbach, Germany
• Frequentis Defense’s contract with the U.S. Army delivers advanced digital tower capability with 4K and thermal cameras, radar integration, and enhanced situational awareness tools

The control room is centrally located, enabling controllers working on different scenarios to be co-located for better collaboration. As a digital solution, the system is enhanced by integrating data from sensors, cameras, and radar to create a 360-degree panoramic out-the-window view with visual and thermal imaging in all weather conditions. By replacing outdated binoculars with advanced pan-tilt-zoom cameras, air traffic controllers can significantly improve their ability to monitor the airspace and airfield, greatly enhancing situational awareness. Additionally, the digital information provided to the controller is recorded for after-action review and training purposes.

“Our partnership with the U.S. Army and the success of the digital tower installation at Katterbach are essential to demonstrating the operational feasibility of the digital tower for complex U.S. Army operations,” says Brian Bruckbauer, President, Frequentis Defense. “We are incredibly proud of our team for completing this first-of-its-kind program, and we’re excited about the upcoming DoD contracts we’ll be signing this year.”
