ABSTRACT:
A forward observer directs a pulsed neodymium laser illuminator in the direction of a target to be marked. A detector-receiver which is fixedly mounted to an attacking aircraft detects the reflected laser energy and determines its direction of incidence. Four indicator lights are projected onto a conventional gunsight combining plate together with a crosshair reticle. The lights provide the pilot with steering signals which will permit him to aline the crosshairs and the target.
