, APOPKA, Fla: Northrop Grumman Corporation has received a contract from the U.S. Army to deliver 275 spare laser transceiver units (LTU) to be installed on the AH-64D Apache attack helicopter's target acquisition designation sight (TADS). 
 
Under the terms of the $23.6 million contract, Northrop Grumman's Laser Systems business unit will provide LTU replacement systems and spares beginning in late 2007. Final deliveries are expected in 2009. 
 
The LTU has both a laser transmitter for range finding and designating targets, and a receiver for determining target range. TADS enables the Apache attack helicopter to detect and identify targets on the battlefield and engage them with laser-guided Hellfire missiles.
