Abstract: The article discusses the use of active, electronically scanned array (AESA) radar developed by the defense contractor Raytheon and a Sniper infrared advanced-targeting pod (ATP) on the F-15C Eagle aircraft for long-range nighttime missions. U.S. homeland defense units would be able to use the system to identify and attack airborne targets and asymmetric threats. Todd Giggy of the U.S. Air Force Reserve Test Center (AATC) discusses flight testing of the system.
