To provide a MILES capability for the (ATGM) vehicle. It replaces the obsolete Field Tactical Trainer (FTT) with a system that is compatible with both Fire Control Systems (FCS).
DESCRIPTION:
STS works in conjunction with the vehicle Modified Improved Target Acquisition System (MITAS) and the MILES XXI training system. STS has two major components; TOW Laser Device (TLD) stimulates the actual TOW missile round, and TOW ATWESS Device (TAD) provides the visual and audible cues associated with the TOW missile when engaging targets. It is currently the only force-on-force trainer that accommodates the Common Processor.
