Proposal Statement
Procurement of a Digital High-Definition Targeting Pod Interface, Display, and Recording system
Recommendation Information
Air National Guard A-10s require improved positive identification, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and battle-tracking capabilities. Friendly force and enemy combatant identification are crucial in any conflict. Advanced targeting pod digital output upgrades, coupled with color video, provide high-resolution feeds enabling identification of friendly and enemy forces from greatly increased standoff ranges. High-definition displays in the A-10 enable full utilization of targeting pod color improvements. A modern digital camera and video recorder capable of recording high-definition video of heads-up display and forward pilot view as well as the high-definition display in full resolution is required. This modification will fulfill classified recording and data storage requirements of the current Digital Video Air Data Recorder system and comply with cybersecurity mandates regarding classified data storage and removable media. Each Air National Guard A-10 requires an upgraded high-definition display, a second gigabit ethernet switch, plus video recorders and data servers.
