Precision Target Signatures (PTS)

Project Director: John Mendes
Project Office: PM ITTS Targets Management Office

MISSION:


To provide low-cost three-dimensional (3-D) targets and decoys.


DESCRIPTION:


The PTS project implements state-of-the-art Visual and Infrared (EO/IR) signature technologies to produce full-scale, validated 3-D decoys that can be stationary or used on existing mover equipment. These decoys emulate the visual and infrared signatures of “actual” threat vehicles (T-72 Main Battle Tanks, BMP-2 Infantry Fighting Vehicles and BTR-80 Armored Personnel Carriers).


PTS targets are:

  • Low Cost
  • Deployable Worldwide
  • Multi-Purpose: Low-Cost Decoy/Surrogate Target
  • Durable / Reusable
  • Mobile
  • Augmented with Thermal Signature Kit
  • Validated
  • Threat Representative
  • Recyclable
