CAAS upgrades air traffic control as Singapore signs new ASAs
The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) announced Singapore Air Traffic Control Centre (SATCC) is to receive a SGD300 million (USD229.6 million) systems upgrade, to allow the centre to manage the country’s increasing air traffic volume. The upgrade includes the installation of Thales’ LORADS (Long Range Radar and Display System) III radar system and Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capabilities. The system was last updated with the installation of its current LORADS II system in 1996.
