Russia’s Grozny Airport has commissioned a new automated air traffic control (ATC) suite, “Galaktika,” developed by Azimut, in a move aimed at strengthening flight safety and operational efficiency at the regional hub. The system is designed to collect, process, store and display real-time airspace data for controllers, forming the core of a modernized ATM (air traffic management) environment.
According to the developer, Galaktika features a modular architecture that allows operators to scale capacity and functionality without altering the underlying server infrastructure. The approach is intended to simplify upgrades and tailor deployments to airport-specific traffic profiles and operational requirements.
The rollout is part of a broader modernization package at Grozny. Installed alongside the ATC suite are a controller training simulator, an RMP-200 radio beacon for aircraft positioning and ground-to-air communications, and a TRS 2000 automated transmit/receive center providing fixed communication channels between controllers and flight crews. The airport had previously fielded a next-generation AORL-AMI 2700 radar and a DF 2000 automatic direction finder.
Airport officials say the integrated system will improve situational awareness, increase airspace throughput and support more reliable operations in challenging terrain and weather conditions typical of the region. Combined with earlier upgrades, the infrastructure is expected to enable all-weather navigation, more efficient traffic management and resilient communications.
Azimut develops and manufactures aeronautical systems and delivers turnkey projects for airports and ATC centers, including communications, navigation, surveillance, landing and automation solutions.
