Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control is promoting the ability of its Pathfinder thermal imager to provide pilots of support aircraft with the kind of brownout/whiteout imaging currently available to combat crews.

Pathfinder is a long-wave infrared seeker based on the modernized pilot night-vision sensor from the AH-64 Apache’s Arrowhead system. The seeker turret mounts easily on a fixed-wing transport or a helicopter. The system provides a wide-angle (52 degrees) view with high resolution (1728 x 960 pixels), and is based on a SADA (standard advanced dewar assembly) integrated detector cooler assembly. Imagery can be displayed on helmet-mounted or head-up displays.
