PIRATE has been developed by the EUROFIRST consortium which comprises Galileo Avionica (FIAR) of Italy (lead contractor), Thales Optronics of the UK (system technical authority) and Tecnobit of Spain.PIRATE operates in both 3-5 and 8-11 micron spectral bands. When used with the radar in an air-to-air role, it functions as an Infrared Search and Track system (IRST), providing passive target detection and tracking.In an air-to-surface role, it performs multiple target acquisition and identification, as well as providing a navigation and landing aid. PIRATE provides a steerable image to the pilot's helmet-mounted display.DASS has been developed by the EuroDASS consortium - Selex Sensors and Airborne Systems (formerly BAE Systems Avionics) of the UK (prime contractor), Elettronica of Italy and Indra of Spain. The consortium was rejoined in October 2001 by EADS, after the German Federal Ministry of Defence contracted to re-enter the programmme.DASS provides an all-round prioritised assessment of threats with fully automatic response to single or multiple threats.DASS includes an Electronic Countermeasures / Support Measures system (ECM/ESM), front and rear missile approach warners, supersonically capable towed decoy systems, laser warning receivers and SaabTech Electronics BOL chaff and flare dispensing system. The avionics system is based on a NATO standard databus with fibre optic highways.Los que se han decidido por el pod litening III, han sido los británicos, los demás socios no han optado aun por ninguna de las opciones del mercado, aunque en el caso español la opción más probable es la del litening III, ya que los F-18 utilizan el II.In September 2005, Ultra Electronics was contracted to supply the Rafael Litening EF laser targeting pod for UK RAF Typhoons.De momento es difícil comparar tanto el DASS, como el Pirate con sus homólogos del Rafale, ya que las informaciones en este aspecto son secretas y sólo se conocen las carácterísticas muy generales de los sistemas, osea es imposible hacer una comparación objetiva.<a href="http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/ef2000/">http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/ef2000/</a></blockquote>
