Hostile Fire Aid for the AN/AVR-2B Laser Detecting Set (United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM))

Abstract

Validates new Operational Flight Program (OFP) software for the Army Navy Nomenclature Aviator-2B (AN/AVR-2B) laser detecting set currently fielded on Army rotary wing aircraft. The OFP software will detect hostile small arms and rocket propelled grenade fire events, and alerts the aircrew via existing on-board equipment. Primary outputs and efficiencies to be demonstrated in the project are improved situational awareness and increased aircraft survivability and to avoid Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E), manufacturing, production, and operations and support costs worth approximately $63.668 million.
