Summary The objective of this work is to develop a next generation device that offers a low cost solution for the mitigation of air to ground fratricide by leveraging existing targeting and ranging systems. The devices employ a triggered emitter, which will provide immediate warning signal in both thermal and near IR bands if a vehicle is targeted by friendly forces. Three prototype devices will be designed and will be demonstrate and evaluated, in collaboration with the Marine Corps Experimentation Center of MARFORPAC, at Cobra Gold 10.
