Air Traffic Technology International has republished Vigilant Aerospace Systems’ press release about the deployment of the FlightHorizon TEMPO airspace management system at the Infinity One Spaceport in Burns Flat, Oklahoma. The installation includes multiple long-range radars and transponder receivers to provide broad-area airspace awareness for uncrewed flight testing and places the deployment within Vigilant Aerospace’s multi-year work with the Oklahoma Department of Aerospace and Aeronautics to support development of the site as a testing location for autonomous aircraft and spacecraft.
The coverage also emphasizes how the system supports real-time traffic display, detect-and-avoid functions, and traffic logging across a large operating area, helping reduce the need for chase aircraft during some test activities. The deployment is a step forward in expanding infrastructure for advanced uncrewed and autonomous flight operations in Oklahoma.
