Procure a 3rd Unit with Laser Rangefinder/Designator
Target Location improves from 80m to 50m CEP @4km
Can Designate for Hellfire
LRF is Non-Eyesafe at 1.06 µm
High Design Risks:
- Must downsize TV optics to make space for LRF/D
- Would use 1/4” CCD Black and White TV for ATD Only
- Could go to Color TV for production
- Thermal, Packaging, Weight, increased Power, Duty Cycle
- Performance: “See-Spot” Coatings weaken range performance
20 Month Schedule
- 3rd Unit delivery end of June 2001 assuming 1 Nov 99 award
High Cost in ATD and Production
