The U. S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM), Research, Development, and Engineering Center W E C ) is developing advanced technologies for demonstration on a missile testbed with Precision Kill and Targeting (PKAT) capabilities. Currently in the U.S. Army inventory there is no long-range stand-off precision guided weapon with real-time target imaging capabilities.Experience has demonstrated the value of real-time imagery and information provided to a trained gunner directly from the weapon. The goal of PKAT program is to develop technologies to provide this capability at operational ranges up to 30 km while providing additional critical information in real-time such as surveillance, targeting, and battlefield damage assessment. It has been determined that a Global Positioning System (GPS)/Inertial Navigation System (INS) will be the most cost effective navigation approach for the PKAT program.
