The Lockheed Martin Sniper is a targeting pod for military aircraft that
provides positive target identification, autonomous tracking, GPS coordinate
generation, and precise weapons guidance from extended standoff ranges.
The system has been designated AN/AAQ-33 in U.S. military service as the
Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod (ATP). Further variants are the Sniper
Extended Range (XR) , as well as the PANTERA export derivative of the
Sniper XR. The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is built with the equivalent
of the Sniper XR in its onboard sensors called the AN/AAQ-40 Electro-
Optical Targeting System (EOTS).
