FDR flight data recorder SferiRec

for aircraft

Overview
The HENSOLDT SferiRec FDR is a flight data recorder with a modular architecture that uses solid-state memory technology to store flight data on an integrated crash protected memory module (CPM). It records critical flight parameters such as altitude, speed, heading and aircraft performance to support accident investigation, system monitoring, pilot training and performance evaluation.

The challenge
Flight data recording is essential for aviation safety: devices must reliably capture and preserve flight parameters throughout operations and survive crash conditions to enable post‑event analysis. Recorders also need to provide accessible read‑out and flexible maintenance to support operational and regulatory requirements.

Our solution
The SferiRec FDR combines a modular architecture with an integrated CPM using solid‑state memory technology to ensure reliable storage and straightforward field maintenance. Its design supports regulatory compliance and flexible system integration for transport and business aircraft.

Features
