@Windjammer...

@nuclearpak

Rough guess.
LRF.....Laser Range Finder.
LP...... Laser Pod. ???

Most probably, as LRF is 1635 m!

That's 1.6 Km, that's really really close -- can that be right?

Laser point(er) active. First you select area then the laser will fire up and that is called armed LP. Before that indeed the laser range (finder) is active. It is needed to calculate release and impact.

So LRF is going to calculate for you that where are you going to shoot from?
@Windjammer, isn't this pic from a C-130 FLIR? If so, then why is LRF on this screen...as the delivery system isn't the C-130 itself unlike AC-130, rather it is a different plane, and the parameters for another plane might be different.

 

[Munir]

You need range calculation for SAW and targeting calculation. You can do that with radar or Laser. This laser calculates the range. A bigger and better version of laser range finders used in golf or sniper activity.

This pic is of F-16

@nuclearpak

The image is most likely from sniper XR Pod.....perhaps @Oscar can clarify this.

 

[Jango]

Ok then, if its a F-16 sniper pod, that explains LRF...but didnt you get the pic from Alan Warnes article about PAFs C130 flir?

You posted a couple of images and some descriptions with them if I remember correctly. I'll comb through the threads and try and find it out.

 

[Windjammer]

Yes, the article focused on Star Safire and Brite Star systems and also other systems in use by the PAF....however he didn't say this was actually from a C-130 FLIR.....maybe some other person can shed light on the subject.
