Joint Effects Targeting System (JETS) is the umbrella name used for the next generation of hand-held precision targeting devices (HHPTD) specifically designed to give company and below FO's the necessary tools to employ precision munitions of today and tomorrow. Although a specific material solution has not yet been selected for fielding, JETS is designed to address the current company and below dismounted FO precision targeting capability gap. JETS will ultimately replace the Lightweight Laser Designator Range Finder.

At a hand-held weight of no more than 5.5 pounds, JETS will be capable of day and night observation, target location and designation. Its internal high-accuracy azimuth device (HAAD) will use a celestial compass in conjunction with an external precision
azimuth and vertical angle measurement (PAVAM) to achieve the pointing and positioning accuracy (10 meters at greater than 2,500 meters) necessary to employ precision munitions. An FO equipped with JETS will be capable of target recognition out to
ranges of 3,000 meters during the day and 1,300 meters at night. The first unit fully equipped with JETS is scheduled for 2016.
