Space and defense-related subcomponents are among the Electronic Technologies Group’s most significant markets. Our subcomponents are utilized in a wide array of commercial & defense satellites, aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Systems (“UASs”) and launch vehicles. Some of these systems are particularly well known. For example, two Electronic Technologies Group companies — Sierra Microwave Technologies and 3D Plus, supplied critical components on the Curiosity Mars Rover program which successfully landed on Mars in August 2012. VPT, Inc., another Electronic Technologies Group company, supplies all of the power converters on the latest generation of GPS satellites. Along with our dB Control and Ramona Research subsidiaries, VPT supplies critical components used in the principal UASs (often called "drones") used by the U.S. military. On these programs, the Electronic Technologies Group components or subcomponents can be found in the air-to-ground data link, radar and other on-board applications.
In addition to serving our historical aviation, space and defense markets, the Electronic Technologies Group has successfully expanded into adjacent markets which require comparable reliability and quality. Today, Electronic Technologies Group companies, such as Analog Modules, EMD Technologies, HVT Group, Leader Tech, Lumina Power and Switchcraft, all supply critical subcomponents for medical equipment. Examples of medical equipment that utilize our components include diagnostic imaging systems, like X-Ray and CT Scanners, lasers used for dermatological, dental and other applications, dosimetry and radiation therapy. Other high-reliability markets served by the Electronic Technologies Group include harsh environment telecommunications, underwater testing and scientific systems. These markets are a perfect match for HEICO because they require the same engineering, production and quality standards for difficult operating environments that are required in our traditional aerospace markets.

IRWindows is a powerful tool for automated multispectral system characterization which uses an intuitive graphical user interface to quickly configure and execute standard IR, visible and laser tests, store test configurations for one-click execution, and export data to other Windows applications, such as Microsoft Excel. Used by the military and commercial organizations.
Military Test Systems
Dynamic IR Scene Projector - MIRAGE (Multi-spectral Infrared Animation Generation Equipment) is the state-of-the-art in dynamic IR scene projection, using a unique design to support multiple test configurations. MIRAGE is more than a set of components to be integrated by the end user; it's the most complete, highest performance, easiest-to use, and dynamic scene projector available to the IR test community. Adopted by the military as test and calibration equipment.
Program Support CASS (Consolidated Automated Support System) - Chosen by the Navy and the Army as their Support Standard, there are currently 60 of these systems in use. Some features are Lab, Flight Line, Depot and IR/Visible/Laser Test Systems for most systems, including the F-18 Fighter.
Program Support for ITAS/IBAS (Improved Target Acquisition System/Improved Bradley Acquisition System) - Laboratory and Depot, TOW missile and Bradley Fighting Vehicle. A multi-spectral test system.
Program Support for EOTS (Electro Optical Test Set) - Designed for test and calibration of the Navigation FLIR and targeting FLIR on F-14, F-15 and F-16 fighters, there are currently 27 being used in military bases worldwide.
Program Support for TETS (Third Echelon Test Set) - Lightweight (less than 65 lbs) and modular, this set is used to test and calibrate mobile and hand held IR/visible/laser targeting and imaging devices on the front-line of the battlefield. Currently, there are 60 systems projected.
