Global strength. Proven performance. Mission-critical reliability.

At DeTect, Inc., our radar systems are engineered and built in over 20,000 sq ft of office, laboratory, and manufacturing facilities across Florida (USA), Poland, and South Korea, enabling full design, assembly, and testing under one integrated quality system.

Every DeTect radar is built to industrial and military (MIL-SPEC), EU CE Mark, and international standards, combining custom engineering with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components for:
✅ Superior performance
✅ Competitive acquisition cost
✅ Low O&M
✅ Seamless technology upgrades through the system life cycle

We back that engineering with real-world proof:

• Over 10 million operational hours since 2003
• 20 MERLIN® systems purchased by the U.S. Department of Defense
• NASA-selected MERLIN® radar for Space Shuttle launch safety (22 missions - 100% uptime)

From our test sites and research labs to global installations, every system reflects one goal - absolute reliability when it matters most.

✈️ When even one bird enters the flight path, the cost can be very high.

At DeTect, we know that bird-aircraft strikes aren’t mere statistics, they’re serious safety hazards, operational disruptors, and financial burdens. Studies show bird and wildlife strikes cost military and commercial aviation over US $2 billion per year in damage, delays, and lost lives.

That’s why we created MERLIN® Aircraft Birdstrike Avoidance Radar: real-time, mission-ready avian detection and alerting, built for demanding airfields, airports, and training ranges.

What sets MERLIN® apart

• Real-time detection & tracking of large flocks and hazardous bird activity across airport approach/departure corridors and low airspace.
• True 3D air-space coverage with high update rate, enabling early warning and proactive response.
• Proven, wide deployment, with over 1,000 systems installed worldwide across commercial and military aviation.
• Integrated operational support - we don’t just sell radar; we provide modelling, site-specific design, training, integration and long-term support.

Why this matters now
As aviation operations intensify, and as climate change and habitat shifts increase migratory bird activity, airfields face higher avian risk. Having a radar system like MERLIN® means you’re not reacting to incidents; you’re watching the skies in real time and making decisions before risk turns into cost.

If you’re responsible for airport safety, military airfield operations, or wildlife hazard management - let’s talk about how MERLIN® can deliver intelligent bird-strike avoidance for your site.
