The ST3400H HeliTAWS® Helicopter Terrain Awareness and Warning System is certified and exceeds the current HTAWS TSO-C194. Specifically built for helicopters, the ST3400H combines an advanced HTAWS computer with the industry’s best display technology to provide a single panel-mount, self-contained solution.

Combining its TAWS expertise from thousands of installations in private, corporate and air-transport airplanes and years of supplying civilian and military users with its 3” and 4” primary displays, Nighthawk Flight Systems provides the helicopter industry a multi-hazard avoidance system that alerts against wires, terrain and obstacles.

WireWatch®

Advance defense against wire strikes that helps helicopter pilots avoid transmission lines whether they are powered on or off. WireWatch uses unique wire alerting algorithms that work proprietary 3-arc second wire database.

TruAlert®

TruAlert is our proprietary alerting technology that enables pilots to take off, cruise, hover and land at off-airport locations without triggering nuisance alerts.
