A laser designator is a laser light source which is used to designate a target. Laser designators provide targeting for laser-guided bombs , missiles , or precision artillery munitions, such as the Paveway series of bombs, AGM-114 Hellfire , or the M712 Copperhead round, respectively.
The AN/PEQ-1 also known as a Special Operations Forces Laser Acquisition Marker (SOFLAM or SOF-LAM) or the Ground Laser Target Designator (GLTD) is a U.S. military laser designator designed for use by special operations forces (SOF), including Combat Control Teams (CCT), Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTAC), and Tactical Air Control Parties (TACP), under rugged field conditions.
RTCA feedback is passed directly to the weapons processor and the ground station through the onboard telemetry radio. The SMODIM processes area weapons effects (AWE) data received from the EXCON and computes geometric pairing solutions for weapon engagements using the RF Hellfire, semi-automated laser (SAL) Hellfire, 30 mm chain gun, and rockets.
M712 Copperhead approaches an old M47 Patton tank used as a target M712 detonating. The M712 Copperhead is a 155 mm caliber cannon-launched guided projectile.It is a fin-stabilized, terminally laser guided, explosive shell intended to engage hard point targets such as tanks, self-propelled howitzers or other high-value targets.
A laser-guided bomb (LGB) is a guided bomb that uses semi-active laser guidance to strike a designated target with greater accuracy than an unguided bomb. First developed by the United States during the Vietnam War, laser-guided bombs quickly proved their value in precision strikes of difficult point targets. These weapons use on-board ...
The 2K25 Krasnopol system [22] consists of the 3OF39 precision shell, a 1D22, 1D20, or 1D15 laser target designator (LTD), and the 1A35 shot synchronization system. The laser designation system has a range of 5 kilometres (3.1 mi), while the projectile itself has a range of 20 kilometres (12 mi) [ 23 ] and a target seeker radius of 1 kilometre ...
The map for Fortnite Chapter 5 leaked a couple of weeks ago, and now we have a list of the points of interest to fill out the map. These aren’t likely the final names though, as pointed out by ...
The Lockheed Martin AN/AAS-38 Nite Hawk is a FLIR, laser designator, and laser tracker pod system for use with laser-guided munitions. [2] The Nite Hawk has been used with the F/A-18 Hornet, and has presumably been tested with the A-7E Corsair II. The Lockheed Martin (ex Loral / Texas Instruments ex Ford Aerospace / Texas Instruments) AAS-38A/B ...
