The Electronic Warfare Division, of the Avionics Laboratory at the Wright Research and Development Center (WRDC), WPAFB, has two in-house facilities which are used in the evaluation of conceptual infrared (IR) and electro-optical (EO) countermeasure techniques. The first facility, called the Dynamic Infrared Missile Evaluator (DIME), is a 6-degree of freedom hardware-in- the-loop infrared (IR) missile simulator. This system is used to evaluate flare and jammer techniques on actual missile guidance and control units under real- time dynamic fly-out conditions. The second facility, called the Electro- Optical Signature Analysis System (EOSAS), is an image processing system with software developed to create images of aircraft and characterize their resulting visual and/or infrared signature. This system is used to design and evaluate observable reduction techniques. Both systems provide WRDC with a unique in-house capability for research and development of IR/EO countermeasure techniques.
