Lockheed Martin unveiled a new long-range infrared search and track (IRST) pod for fourth-generation aircraft at the Air Force Association's annual Air Warfare Symposium on 12 February.
The Legion Pod combines Lockheed Martin's IRST21 infrared sensor with networking and data processing technology for detection and tracking of airborne targets, company officials said. The pod can hold additional sensors within its current structure, they said.
"Legion Pod has been right-sized to accommodate future payloads based on customer requirements," Don Dolling, director of business development at Lockheed's Missiles and Fire Control, told during a 13 February interview at the Air Force Association's Air Warfare Symposium.
