Thermal Fire Control for the Multi-role Anti-armor Anti-personnel Weapon System (MAAWS) (Special Operations Command) - Contingent upon Congressional appropriationand/or new start authority.
Abstract
Test upgraded software for the AN/PAS13 Thermal Weapons Sight (TWS) to provide effective targeting acquisition for all 84mm ammunition used in MAAWS. The AN/PAS13 is a fielded lightweight, compact, fire control unit for crew served weapons with 3X electronic zoom, containing programmable reticles and thermal imaging technology. When upgraded with the TWS MAAWS the Special Operations warfighter will have increased lethality on the battlefield. The primary outputs and efficiencies are quick target engagement with target acquisition at one meter increments, high accuracy and increased warfighter security.
