The Airborne and Special Operations Test Directorate here, in conjunction with elements of the 82nd Airborne Division, completed final phases of Airborne testing for the Laser Target Locator Module, or LTLM II, recently. The primary mission of the LTLM II is to provide accurate targeting data to execute effective fires with artillery and mortars. "The LTLM II provides the dismounted squads the capability to obtain targeting data, no matter the weather conditions or location," said Staff Sgt. Marcus Love, Test NCO with ABNSOTD.
