These are portable test sets for the Hellfire missile system and Hellfire launchers, combining the capabilities of an I-Level test set in a compact, rugged, field-qualified enclosure.

A family of eye-safe Laser target simulators for field and backshop testing of laser-guided munitions including Hellfire, Laser JDAM, Laser Maverick, Paveway, Griffin, and more will be demonstrated in Paris alongside the MTS-235 F-35 Armament Test Set.
