Topic: IRST


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Infra-red search and track - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
With infra-red homing or fire-and-forget missiles, the aircraft may be able to fire upon the targets without having to turn their radar sets on at all.
However, most IRST systems are sensitive enough to detect the heat of a jet from head-on as well, either infra-red energy generated from the hot air coming out of the engines, from air friction heating the airframe, or both.
IRST is more often used against aircraft, but can find and track ground targets, whereas FLIRs are more often found on ground attack aircraft.

While the IRST still scan and track dozens of targets, the IR/TV channel follows ONE target to provide visual identification at long range and cues to the weapon system (including range).
The biggest problem with the setup currently used on Russian jets is the laser rangefinder which is only good to 15km's, the Indians on the MKI decided to go with an Israeli pod because it had a superior laser rangefinder.
According to the report i read years ago, OSF (without the IRST mounted for this particular test) was demonstrated in the same conditions as for this photo and proved capable of giving higly detailed images at "beyhond MICA engagement envelop".

The center of the UFC contains the Infra-Red Search and Track display (IRST) which is a passive sensor that allows you to track air and ground targets without emitting signals that would alert the enemy to your presence.
Surrounding the IRST display are a multitude of buttons that control other aircraft systems.
To the right of the IRST window are two toggles labeled "G" and "B" for landing gear and weapons bay doors respectively.

 Detection and Tracking
Infrared Search and Track (IRST) Systems are one component of a multisensor suite which can meet the technical challenge of the timely detection/track/identification of low signal-to-(noise+clutter) ratio targets.
Cruise missiles over land and sea cluttered backgrounds as well as ballistic missiles are serious threats to IRST.
These threats are stealth in both the infrared and radio frequency bands.

IRST system for air to air combat (does the typhoon and rafael have one?), but most of the new external targeting pods have an air to air mode.How does those systems fare against eastern IRST systems?
USN-MID RE:IRST VS targeting pods 10/27/2004 9:41:50 AM Targeting pods have yet to be used as "air" targeting pods...at most they provide a search service useful in low light conditions for aircraft without NVGs.

Mainly, though the original device is a smart design for audio acquisition involving 64 microphones, there were some heavy limitations to its application for Speech Recognition and Speaker Localization purposes.
The IRST version of the MarkIII overcomes these limitations.
