V/STOL aircraft and helicopters have been used, given suitable equipment and often subject to severe limitations, in night and poor visibility conditions for some years, but very recently the availability of sensors which can give the crew a view of the ground in the dark has opened an entirely new range of possibilities. This joint meeting of the Guidance and Control and the Avionics Panels of AGARD is thus taking place at a time when technology in this field is moving forward very rapidly and major advances in operational capability are being achieved.
