The Joint Effects Targeting System (JETS) from Leonardo DRS is the most comprehensive hand-held target location system available today. JETS gives Forward Observers the ability to not only carry out necessary reconnaissance on targets but also acquire specific locations on a precision grid and communicate the coordinates instantaneously to the network of maneuver commanders for decisive action.
In this video, John Benton from Leonardo DRS Business Development breaks down the system's advanced capabilities, including its integrated HD thermal imager, color day camera, SWIR sensor for see-spot capability, and laser rangefinder. With its self-contained celestial navigation, JETS allows a soldier to acquire precise target location data without external equipment or mensuration software. With unprecedented form and function, JETS is a light-weight, modular design suitable for a variety of different mission sets.
As the JETS I program of record continues to field, Leonardo DRS is already developing the next-generation JETS II, upgrading the technology to ensure warfighters maintain overmatch on the modern battlefield.
