DESCRIPTION
The Laser Target Locator Module 2 (LTLM 2) is a handheld, passive sensor that provides all weather and battlefield conditions target acquisition. The LTLM 2 has integrated an eye safe laser range finder, an infrared camera, a low light camera, a digital magnetic compass, a Selective Availability Anti-Spoof Module compliant Global Positioning System and direct view optics with an etched reticle that is similar in size to the standard M22 binoculars.
BENEFIT TO THE SOLDIER
The LTLM 2 addresses a high-priority capability gap for a lightweight, target locator that allows the dismounted Soldier to conduct urban operations requiring quick movement and obtaining points of advantage. Once the position of advantage is achieved, they must, in the stealthiest mode possible, under all battlefield and climatic conditions, quickly and accurately ascertain exact positions of interest and provide as accurate of a location description as possible for organic and supporting forces to respond as required.
