An AN/AAQ-37 sensor just below the canopy, above the nose. Below the nose, the electro-optical targeting system. The AN/AAQ-37 Distributed Aperture System (DAS) is the first of a new generation of sensor systems being fielded on the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II.
The new MW electro-optical system can identify targets at greater ranges than the long-wave system. [2] The first Arrowhead production contract was awarded 11 November 2003. Lockheed Martin rolled out the first Arrowhead system to the U.S. Army in May 2005, and completed integration on the first Apache helicopters in June 2005. [1]
Loral Corporation originally developed radar and sonar systems for the US Navy. In 1959 it went public with an initial offering of 250,000 shares at $12 each. [ 3 ] Part of the proceeds from this offering were used to build a new headquarters on its 10-acre (40,000 m 2 ) site at 825 Bronx River Avenue, in the Soundview section of The Bronx ...
The Exotic Electro-Optics subsidiary of laser components maker II-VI has signed two multiyear agreements to sell its sapphire windows to Lockheed-Martin . The first agreement is for Lockheed's F ...

Manufactured by Lockheed in Sunnyvale, California, the KH-11 was the first American spy satellite to use electro-optical digital imaging, and so offer real-time optical observations. [7] Later KH-11 satellites have been referred to by outside observers as KH-11B or KH-12, and by the names "Advanced KENNEN", "Improved Crystal" and "Ikon".
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.
An IRST system may also have a regular magnified optical sight slaved to it, to help the IRST-equipped aircraft identify the target at long range. As opposed to an ordinary forward looking infrared system, an IRST system will actually scan the space around the aircraft similarly to the way in which mechanically (or even electronically) steered ...
