StormScope WX 500 by L-3 Communications

Displaying lightning information at ranges of 25-200 nm, the Stromscope WX-500 is designed to interface with the most popular, new generation of multi-function diplays. With the WX-500, you can view lightning information directly on your MFD - either on a dedication page or overlaid on the moving map. Even if your MFD already has datalink weather, nothing provides the accuracy and timeliness of a Stromscope system for mapping ALL lightning activity.

The WX-500 also lets you choose between strike and cell mode, depending on your preference. By adding the Stromscope WX-500 to SkyWatch® or SkyWatch® HP systems, traffic and lightning information can be superimposed over datalink weather or radar returns.* The operating modes of Stormscope WX-500 and SkyWatch are controleld directly through your MFD, or radar indicator using an RGC350, eliminating the space and cost of an extra controller.
