Laser Designator

Vision Technologies Product Line now Equipped with Optional Laser Designator

A laser designator is a laser light source which is used to designate a target. Laser designators provide targeting for laser guided bombs, missiles, or precision artillery munitions.

When a target is marked by a designator, the beam is invisible and does not shine continuously. Instead, a series of coded pulses of laser-light are fired. These signals bounce off the target into the sky, where they are detected by the seeker on the laser guided munition, which steers itself towards the centre of the reflected signal. Unless the people being targeted possess laser detection equipment or can hear aircraft overhead, it is extremely difficult for them to tell whether they are being marked or not.

The Vision Technologies Laser Designator consists of a 1.06µm resonator, output telescope, boresight laser and diode driver. The designator produces >30 mJ of laser energy/pulse at standard PRF and PIM Codes
