Key Details
Official Description
The Navy desires a short wave infrared high energy laser illuminator and coupled range-gated imaging sensor, including optics, operating in 1.9-2.5 micron wavelength to increase engagement ranges in adverse marine atmospheric conditions that include absorption, Mie and Rayleigh scattering, thermal blooming, etc. and able to operate in continuous wave (CW) or pulsed operation modes – at a variable power level up to kilowatt powers (average). Adjustable wavelength tunability to match to optimal at...
