Following the June 2019 announcement that they would collaborate on the development of a new mission surveillance aircraft (MSA) concept, Leonardo (Pavilion P8) and Diamond Aircraft Industries (Static S5) have revealed that the Gabbiano Ultra-Light TS-80 radar will be a new option for the special mission configuration.

When the collaboration for the Diamond DA62 MSA concept was unveiled, Leonardo’s Gabbiano Ultra-Light TS-20 was the radar selection for the aircraft, but the two companies have used the Dubai Airshow to announce the expansion of the offering to also include the longer-range TS-80 version.
