QD3000 / LASER TARGET DESIGNATOR
Laser Target Designator QD3000
The Laser Target Designator QD3000 is a compact and portable laser designation system developed to support precision targeting operations in modern security and defense missions. Designed for both day and night use, the system combines laser designation, rangefinding, navigation, and target acquisition capabilities within a single handheld unit. Its solid-state architecture and user-oriented design enable reliable operation in demanding operational environments.
Day/night handheld designator with integrated rangefinder, GNSS, digital compass, target-coordinate acquisition and wired/wireless remote operation.
Integrated Laser Designation, Ranging and Target Acquisition
The operational role of the Laser Target Designator QD3000 is to designate and mark targets for laser-guided platforms and munitions.
By providing stable and accurate laser designation, the system supports precision engagement while enabling operators to acquire, track, and designate targets under varying light and environmental conditions.
Day, Low-Light and Night Field Operations
The QD3000 is intended for military and security operations requiring laser target designation and situational awareness. It is suitable for field operations conducted in daylight, low-light, and night conditions.
The system can be used in dismounted operations as well as in coordination with unmanned or manned platforms requiring laser designation support.
