The Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) System is used by the Jamaica Defence Force Air Wing on the AS 355N Ecureuil helicopter.  The FLIR uses body temperature or heat emitted from an object to form visible images.  This therefore facilitates overt or covert observation in the absence of ambient light, that is, in total darkness.
It has a forward – looking infrared and video camera mounted in a gyro-stabilized turret that can traverse 360°.  The system also includes a0 video recorder, GPS interface and a microwave downlink for real-time broadcasting of infrared video images
