The FALCON Tactical Searchlight & Illumination Platform family from Wiseled delivers powerful, high-intensity light engineered for military, maritime and border operations. Specifically designed to Mil Spec, FALCON provides exceptional illumination, both IR and White light for integration with land vehicles, vessels, and fixed installations. Defence, security, and infrastructure operators benefit from operational reliability, advanced searchlight controllability, and consistent illumination performance from any power source from 12 – 36V DC.
Based on extensive end-user feedback from widespread use by Ukrainian Mobile Firing Teams, the FALCON Searchlight family can be tailored to meet diverse mission requirements and local regulatory frameworks. Several thousand sets are currently in use world wide, enabling cost effective C-UAV systems to reduce the likelihood of saturation on higher value target options. Available options include a green laser dazzler, IR pointer and illuminator, as well as an anchor beam and a 1–40 degree zoom white light, providing an effective range of up to 9 km.
Mission-Driven Applications
Engineered for maritime applications, the FALCON Searchlight Platform maintains optimal illumination and searchlight performance in fog, rain, spray, and darkness. Rugged, corrosion-resistant construction, maritime specific connector and adaptive beam control assist in navigation, interdiction, and search and rescue (SAR) missions with confidence and reliability.
FALCON delivers operators precise, high-output searchlight illumination for rapid identification of threats, both overt and covert with IR options. This enables passive and active monitoring as well as deterrence along borders and perimeters.
For critical infrastructure, the FALCON Tactical Searchlight Platform provides intense illumination in both range and power. Compliance with MIL-STD-810H and related standards ensures resilient searchlight performance under adverse environmental conditions.
Demonstrated in SAR missions, FALCON’s high-intensity searchlight delivers zoomable illumination 0.25 lux at 8,940 meters to enable efficient searches during darkness. The zoomable beam enables both area and precise searches.
FALCON’s adaptable searchlight beam width and illumination intensity provide flexibility for dynamic patrols and crowd management. The system has been incorporated into riot control systems for a major European police force. Operators can rapidly tune searchlight and illumination settings to maintain situational awareness and deterrence when required.
FALCON has been battle tested in Ukraine, enabling mobile firing teams to locate and interdict Shaheed type one way attack vehicles at night. It provides a cost-effective enabler in both manual and automated formats. A key part of layered area defence and high intensity critical infrastructure protection is the ability to interdict UAS with cost effective solutions – FALCON is part of this capability mix. Visual identification of the UAV can be achieved at a range of 5km, providing gun and interceptor drone teams with time to prepare and react.
Integration-Focused Control and User Experience
The FALCON Tactical Searchlight Platform is engineered with a focus on ease of use, reliability, adaptability and robustness – all under real operational conditions.

For more inquiries
FALCON is a high-intensity tactical searchlight and illumination platform for military, maritime and border security operations. It combines a motorised 1°–40° zoom white-light searchlight with optional 860 nm IR illumination and pointer, and delivers up to 20,000,000 cd. The platform is designed to MIL-STD for integration with land vehicles, vessels, weapon stations and fixed installations.
FALCON is in active service in Ukraine, where it supports mobile firing teams in locating and engaging one-way attack UAS at night. It has also been integrated into riot control systems for a major European police force. Other applications include border surveillance, maritime patrol, search and rescue, and critical infrastructure protection.
FALCON delivers 0.25 lux at 8,940 m with a luminous intensity of up to 20,000,000 cd. Visual identification of UAVs has been achieved at ranges of up to 5 km. The motorised zoom lets operators switch between a narrow 1° beam for long-range identification and a 40° beam for area search.
Yes. FALCON can be adapted to local user requirements and legislation. Options include a green laser dazzler, 860 nm IR illuminator (485 mW) and IR pointer (125 mW), and strobe mode for deterrence at range.
FALCON communicates over secure RS422 and runs on 12–32 V DC with a maximum power draw of 120 W. The main searchlight, IR pointer and floodlight are controlled independently. For dismounted use, a custom bracket developed with Fjord Defence A/S mounts FALCON on NATO standard pintle mounts and runs it from portable DC sources.
