ABSTRACT:
A boresight mechanism 10 incorporating internal boresight target generator 28 to generate a boresight target signal for properly aligning first and second sensors 22, 24. Beam splitter 52 and corner reflector 60 are positioned along optical path 100 such that sensor 22 and sensor 24 can view either the boresight target signal or a target signal without requiring optical elements to be slued into and out of position to provide a clear line of sight.
