Hawkeye AD
Hawkeye AD provides integrated electro-optical fire control for ballistic effectors on fixed and mobile platforms. High-definition thermal and daylight sensors and a high-performance laser rangefinder are mounted together on a dynamic direct-drive positioner, providing the sensing and motion control required for accurate target tracking.
A built-in tracker delivers precise three-dimensional coordinates of air and surface targets to gun control or combat systems. The digital system is combat-system agnostic and can be reconfigured and customized for specific integration requirements. Automated tracking helps reduce operator workload during air defense and targeting missions.
