F/A-18 Infrared Search and Track (IRST)
Abstract
F/A-18 Infra-Red Search and Track (IRST): The F/A-18 E/F IRST system is a passive long-wave Infra-Red (IR) sensor which provides an alternate fire control system in a high Electronic Attack / Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR) denied environment. The IRST Block II Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) upgrades two Weapons Replaceable Assemblies (WRAs); the Infra-Red Receiver (IRR) and processor in order to provide full Capabilities Development Document (CDD) capability and enhanced warfighting capability through an improved engagement timeline, improved situational awareness, longer range passive detection and tracking and a larger field of regard with specification performance.
