Infrared Measurements of Vehicles and Weapons

Abstract

Techniques and instrumentation methods are described for measuring infrared (IR) radiation during development and production tests of military ground vehicles and weapons. The report covers measurements of IR signatures of vehicles and IR temperature measurements of weapon tubes during firing programs. Pertinent areas/surfaces/conditions for survey and sample plots, graphs, and photographs for reporting results are included. Tests are applicable to those conducted on land.
