New Weapons Targeter Equips Harrier GR9 In Afghanistan
« on: March 07, 2007, 01:06:28 PM »
The Ministry of Defence is buying new U.S.-built targeting pods for its GR9 Harrier front line jets.

Lockheed Martin in Florida is providing Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod (ATP) under the terms of an Urgent Operational Requirement (UOR) issued by the Royal Air Force late last year.

"The MoD selected Sniper ATP for its proven combat capabilities and low-risk integration benefits," said Hugh Woods, program manager at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control.
