Eh? You lost me here. The one Groove give a link to? I thought it was made by F-22 using some targeting pod.

It's a reconnaissance pod for the Tornado.

Ok, I'm not familiar with it.

There you are. Note, I haven't fully read this page so let me know if it's complete rubbish.

Thanks I got it, it's the same link Groove posted earlier. BTW UK's Typhoons are using Litening TGPs, right?

[Jona33]

Yep, Litening III's I think.

Correct. As do our Tornado GR4s.

Hi, here https://cmano-db.com/weapon/459/

it is stated that:

Laser Target Designator & Ranger (LTD/R)
Max Range: 27.8 km

@BIGNEWY  Then is it in line with your sources and will it be evolved to that?, up to now for buddy lasing the emitter has to be below 8nm.

 

Thanks

Hi, 

I'm happy to show the team this web page, but it does not look like data we can use, it needs to be a more official public source. 

thank you
