The Ukrainian State Air Traffic Services Enterprise (UkSATSE) and the German company Thales Deutschland GmbH have signed an agreement to supply five sets of modern comprehensively targeted range-finding radio beacons, the UkSATSE said on its website. New beacons will be installed throughout Ukraine and will improve the quality of navigation services in the relevant areas of the airspace of Ukraine.
The project is funded by a credit from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the European Investment Bank (EIB). Equipment was purchased in accordance with EBRD rules and procedures.
“The characteristics of all navigation devices installed by the UkSATSE comply with ICAO standards and recommended practices and the national certification requirements,” the report said.
The company also notes that the UkSATSE has been cooperating with the leading German manufacturer of air navigation equipment Thales for about 20 years.
