Operational experience, previous flight tests, and simulation tests have demonstrated both the requirements and the potential for performance improvement in airborne visual acquisition of ground targets. Performance improvement with head-up predesignation was measured by means of a dynamic part-task low-altitude, high-speed visual flight simulation. Significant improvement was shown in probability of acquisition, range of acquisition, and search performance ratios. Improvements in performance are of sufficient magnitude to have an important effect upon weapon delivery probability on small tactical targets, and standoff capability on more highly defended strategic or interdiction targets.
