Lockheed Martin displays its stunning video for Apache technology at IDEX
Abu Dhabi, Feb 25, 2009 (WAM) - America's Lockheed Martin displayed its streaming video technology for Apache aircrews at the International Defence Exhibition, IDEX 2009 yesterday.
Dubbed VUIT-2, the new technology provides Apache aircrews with real-time streaming battlefield video and metadata from unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) on cockpit multi-purpose displays, enhancing situational awareness, providing real-time intelligence validation, reducing the sensor-to-shooter timeline and improving effectiveness against time-critical targets.
'VUIT-2 has proven its worth in combat operations', said Col. Eric Peterson, brigade commander of the 10th Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB).
The 1-10 Attack Reconnaissance Battalion (ARB), a component of the 10th CAB, was the first VUIT-2-equipped unit and deployed with the system in late 2008.
