Rattler™ is a miniature, coded diode-pumped laser (DPL) designator /marker developed especially for the
requirements of the modern battle field for SWAP (size, weight and power). Featuring ultra-light weight, high
performance and high-reliability, the Rattler is based on a unique new pumping architecture. The Rattler can
be carried along with all other infantry equipment, or installed on micro-payloads and mini-UAVs.

Rattler™A for airborne applications
Rattler A provides observation payloads with full targeting capabilities,
enabling designation for all laser-guided munitions and coded
illumination. Designed to be easily fitted into the smallest available
payload (~ 5” diameter), Rattler A is extremely compact and
lightweight, with an exceptionally small form factor.

Rattler™H for ground marking/designation applications
Rattler H offers a new solution for Close Air Support (CAS) enhanced
target engagement and ground surface-to-surface precision laser-
guided munitions target engagement:

   Marking: The CAS platform’s laser spot tracker can find the
   reflected laser spot from the target and display that position to the
   pilot, then slave the weapon system to the laser spot.
   Designation: Coded target designation for air or gun-fired/mortar
   laser-guided munitions
