Argon ST - Aircraft Systems ( Redlands , California ) was created to address unique airborne special mission requirements as a new operating unit under “Network Systems”. Argon ST – Aircraft Systems provides innovative and cost effective aircraft installation, operational, and support solutions to U.S. and foreign governments engaged in airborne missions which require advanced detection, analysis, identification, targeting, tracking, response, and networked connectivity capabilities aboard various types of multi-mission aircraft.

Our design and engineering capabilities span the range of applied and theoretical disciplines associated with aerospace structures, mechanical systems, electrical systems, motion control, RF engineering, systems integration, and FAA/DoD airworthiness certification compliance. Our facilities and prototype manufacturing capabilities also include structures, mechanical, and electrical fabrication, assembly, test, evaluation and airworthiness compliance certification.

Argon ST - Aircraft Systems is currently developing several products in conjunction with both U.S. and foreign clients operating Lockheed Martin C-130 aircraft which require rapid and temporary installation of; C ommand C ontrol, C ommunications, C omputing I ntelligence, S urveillance, and R econnaissance (C 4 ISR) systems, E lectronic W arfare S elf P rotection (EWSP) systems, and C hemical, B iological, R adiological/ N uclear E vent (CBRNE) characterization and response systems.

Our current line of aircraft special mission products include the following “Group B” non dedicated components for C-130, C-27, and other roll on cargo transport aircraft;

• Special mission payload mounting and deployment systems
