A $25 million U.S. Marine Corps contract received by Northrop Grumman's Electronic Sensors and Systems Sector covers the supply of LITENING II targeting pods for the AV-8Bs of the Italian and Spanish navies, as well as for the USMC's own Harrier IIs. Nine of the pods are for the USMC, four for the Italian navy, and two for Spain. The contract also includes logistical support, spares and training. Originally developed in Israel, LITENING combines day and night targeting and navigation capabilities in a single low-cost high-performance pod, and is currently in U.S. production by Northrop Grumman ESSS for Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve F-16s. It combines forward-looking infrared (FLIR), charged-coupled device television (CCDTV), and laser spot tracker/rangefinder sensors, with a laser marker and a laser designator for extremely accurate delivery of both conventional and precision-guided weapons.
