A very short range wireless power and communication link from the cockpit to rocket via the LAU-61G/A Digital Rocket Launcher. The wireless link will enable programming rockets with fuze settings and targeting data without any change of rocket handling procedure.
Benefit: The ability to program and reprogram rockets in real time right up to the time of launch will lower cost and extend range versus laser guided systems while providing high accuracy targeting and minimization of collateral damage. Potential commercial applications include short range programming of equipment.
