Raytheon and Safran
US/French agreement
Raytheon and Safran have signed
a memorandum of understanding
to work together
on the development of a new
generation of combat vehicle
sighting systems.
The family of
forward-looking infrared sights will
combine electro-optical technology
from the US company and inertial
measurement unit technology from
the French electronics and defence
company. The new systems will
see in mid- and long-wave bands
simultaneously at long range.
