The simplest spot trackers, such as the Pave Penny pod, have no laser at all, just a laser sensor. Some targeting systems incorporate a laser rangefinder, a laser beam that can calculate the precise range to a target and communicate that information to the nav/attack system. Many targeting pods or installations use the same sensor as the laser ...
AN/ASQ-228 Advanced Targeting Forward-Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) Pod on an F/A-18 Super Hornet. F-4 Phantom shown from an ATFLIR Targeting Pod. The AN/ASQ-228 Advanced Targeting Forward-Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) is a multi-sensor, electro-optical targeting pod incorporating thermographic camera, low-light television camera, target laser rangefinder/laser designator, and laser spot tracker ...
The Insight Integrated Sighting Module (ISM) is a non-magnified red dot sight equipped with an integral infrared target illumination laser and visible laser sight. The ISM was originally produced in tandem with the XM8 Assault Rifle, with the intention of becoming a standard attachment. However, even as the XM8 project was cancelled, Insight ...
TADS contains stabilized electro-optical sensors, a laser rangefinder and laser target designator. The TADS assembly can rotate +/− 120 degrees in azimuth, +30/−80 degrees in elevation and can move independently of the PNVS. The movements of TADS can be 'slaved' to the head movements of the helicopter crew to point where they are looking.
On the left, the main IR sensor (100 km range), on the right a TV/IR identification sensor with laser rangefinder (40 km range) An electro-optical targeting system (EOTS), is a system employed to track and locate targets in aerial warfare. [1] It can use charge-coupled device TV cameras, laser rangefinders and laser designators.
A pair of marines scan with M16A4 rifles in Fallujah, Iraq (December 2004); the one in the foreground has an ITL MARS attached via a MIL-STD-1913 "Picatinny rail".. The ITL MARS (multi-purpose aiming reflex sight) is a gun sight that combines two sighting devices, a reflex sight and a laser sight, as well as a backup iron sight.

An on-gimbal inertial navigation sensor establishes line-of-sight and automatic boresighting capability. The pod is equipped with a laser designator for precise delivery of laser-guided munitions. A laser rangefinder provides information for various avionics systems, for example, navigation updates, weapon deliveries and target updates. The ...
