Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is a system broadcasting, without the need for action from the pilot or any request from ATC, that provides an enhanced set of aircraft surveillance data to Air Traffic Management (and potentially to other airplanes)

In recent years most countries have issued mandates requiring aircraft to be equipped with ADS-B Out equipment in order to fly in most controlled airspace. By the end of 2024 almost all mandates will have entered into force. 

This mandate is particularly problematic for ATR 42-300/-320, these aircraft  are factory-equipped with ADCs without the capability to transmit digital data and they are therefore incompatible with ADS-B transponders.

ADS-B is a surveillance technology that expands ATC Mode S functionalities by transmitting periodically GNSS position together with aircraft specific information such as Flight ID, Aircraft category, etc. This information is received by ATC or other aircraft and can be used to enhance airspace usage and improve situational awareness.

Talon Aerospace anti-collision wing and tail strobe lights are designed to replace all incandescent based strobe lights installed on Boeing, Airbus, McDonnell/Douglas, Embraer, Bombardier and other regional aircraftt.

During retrofit the operator will purchase an install kit, which includes an adaptor and harness assembly. The harness and adaptor will last the lifetime of the airframe. There are 3 basic LED strobe designs and all operate with a common Talon LED power supply unit.
