ASTAMIDS - The Airborne Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Minefield Detection System

摘要

In January 2010, the U.S. Army terminated the ASTAMIDS platform - the Northrop Grumman Fire Scout UAV. Northrop Grumman is pursuing overseas Fire Scout sales that might result in an ASTAMIDS order. Northrop Grumman offers several airborne mine detection products that could be deployed in place of ASTAMIDS. The Airborne Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Minefield Detection System (ASTAMIDS) is an electro-optical, infrared, laser designation, countermine sensor.
