STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY FOR THE WEAPONS SYSTEMS MARKET
Materion’s state-of-the-art technology keeps friendly forces ahead of the growing threats to world peace. Modern weaponry relies on advanced guidance technology to accurately strike targets and minimize collateral damage.
The role of precision guidance systems becomes increasingly important as military targets move in closer proximity to civilian populations, explosive payloads shrink and pinpoint accuracy is expected. From precision-guided munitions to unmanned attack vehicles, the performance of guidance optics is critical to successful strikes. Our filters, coatings and sensor arrays are used extensively in IR countermeasure, precision strike and force protection applications to deliver reliable performance.
