SMART WEAPONS TRAINING SEMINAR The Guidance and Control Information Analysis Center (GACIAC), which is sponsored by the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) and operated by IIT Research Institute (IITRI) since 1977, is sponsoring a three-day Smart Weapons Training Seminar to be held in Huntsville, AL 7-9 March 1995. Smart Weapons are the force multipliers for the future. Such weapons are being developed by both the U.S. and foreigh countries. Through this seminar, GACIAC is attempting to provide a single source of information on specific U.S. and foreign smart weapons to include their deployment, system description, and performance characteristics. The seminar will include description of current U.S. Systems, U.S. Systems under development and other U.S. Smart Weapon Concepts. Direct fire, aircraft launched and indirect fire systems will be discussed. Representative examples of systems being discussed include TOW, Dragon, Hellfire, AMRAAM, Copperhead, JAVELIN, LOSAT, STAFF, LONGBOW, MMW/IR Maverick, NLOS, SADARM, BAT AND WAM. Several of the smart weapon concepts such as LOCAAS, LONGFOG, TACAWS, SFW, Damocles, and JDAMS will also be briefly discussed. Limited available information will also be provided on foreign smart weapon systems such as MERLIN, BONUS, ACES, STRIX and others. The seminar is for project managers, materiel developers, systems analysts and engineers interested in gaining an understanding of critical smart weapons related systems, subsystems, and technologies. The seminar will be at the SECRET level. Attendees will require SECRET security clearance (US citizens only). Similar seminars conducted last year were quickly filled.
