DTIC ADA524988: Laser Decoy System for Small Ground Platforms

Increasingly, U.S. Navy ships are operating in the littorals, where they may be exposed to a variety of threat weapons including laser-directed threats. These laser-guided threats are also of very high concern to the Marines as they operate lightly armored vehicles in hostile areas. A laser decoy concept was developed demonstrating a capability to counter these types of threats. With relatively small-sized vehicles, the laser decoy needs to be compact and affordable. Short threat alert times dictate a very rapid response from the laser decoy. These constraints were met in the laser decoy that was developed and demonstrated as part of the EWISSP (Electronic Warfare Integrated System for Small Platforms) project.
