F-35 Lightning II EOTS Video 4

F-35 Lightning II EOTS maintains robust moving track capability through overflight. The Electro-optical Targeting System (EOTS) is an affordable, high-performance, lightweight, multi-functional system for precision air-to-air and air-to-surface targeting. The low-drag, stealthy EOTS is integrated into the Lightning II’s fuselage with a durable sapphire window and is linked to the aircraft’s integrated central computer through a high-speed fiber-optic interface. The EOTS uses a staring mid-wave 3rd-generation forward-looking infrared that provides superior target detection and identification at greatly increased standoff ranges. EOTS also provides high-resolution imagery, automatic tracking, infrared search and track, laser designation and rangefinding and laser spot tracking. As the worlds first and only system that shares a Sniper® Advanced Targeting Pod and IRST systems legacy, it provides high reliability and efficient two-level maintenance.
