This report describes the image data on military vehicles at 3.2 mm and 10.6 micrometer wavelengths obtained by US Army Missile Command (MICOM), Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The images were obtained through the use of the Hughes Research Laboratory (HRL) mobile images scanning equipment. A basic research program was established in December 1975 at MICOM to evaluate the submillimeter wavelength region of the electromagnetic spectrum for possible Army applications. The goal of this program is to determine if an all-weather capability will be provided by utilization of these wavelengths. Initial emphasis was driven by an ASAP summer study in 1974 by Paul W. Kruse which suggested that submillimeter waves could provide sufficient resolution and inclement weather penetration to allow the Army to acquire, recognize, and direct conventional weapons fire onto hostile targets, such as tanks and other military vehicles.
