Recommendation:
Pilots will take longer to locate enemy positions and be unable to exploit improved image quality of next generation
targeting pods. This limits the ability to increase standoff, to determine enemy intent, and degrades the ability to execute

Recommendation Information
=Requirement:
Source of Need. Combatant Commander’s Urgent Operational Need dated 26 Sep 2008; ARC 2012 WEPTAC Critical
Requirement.
Impacts If Not Funded:
F-16s and A-10s will remain at risk to many current and all advanced threat systems resulting in areas of denied access,
significantly impacting the pilot’s ability to accomplish assigned missions and meet combatant commanders’ requirements.
Units Impacted:
A-10
188 FW Ft. Smith, AR 122 FW Fort Wayne, IN 124 WG Boise, ID
127 FW Selfridge ANGB, MI 175 WG Baltimore, MD
F-16
114 FW Sioux Falls, SD 144 FW Fresno, CA 177 FW Atlantic City, NJ
115 FW Truax, WI 148 FW Duluth, MN 169 FW McEntire, SC
132 FW Des Moines, IA 149 FW Kelly AFB, TX 180 FW Toledo, OH
138 FW Tulsa, OK 158 FW Burlington, VT 187 FW Dannelly Fld, AL
Background. Positive Identification (PID) of friendly forces and enemy combatants is crucial in any conflict. Every
action must be taken to eliminate fratricide and civilian casualties. Currently, three capabilities can immediately help
A-10 pilots minimize misidentification. The first of these is the Helmet Mounted Integrated Targeting (HMIT) system.
