Raytheon ATFLIR Targeting Pod Captures First International Orders
Raytheon has received a $62 million U.S. Navy order to provide the Advanced Targeting Forward Looking Infrared pod to the air forces of Australia and Switzerland.

The foreign military sale award calls for the delivery of 18 ATFLIR systems to Australia to equip its new F/A-18 F Block II+ Super Hornets.

Raytheon will also provide one ATFLIR pod to Switzerland as part of an upgrade program for its F/A-18C Hornets. The order allows the nation to purchase up to 14 more pods in 2009.
