InfraRed Power Technology DIRCM – Directed Infrared Countermeasure
o DIRCM paradigm is “jamming”o numerous seconds to engageo can’t handle simultaneous missiles without costly and impractical multiplexingo dead end technology – Imaging Infrared (IIR)
DIRECM™ Directed Infrared Extreme Countermeasure
The aim is to destroy the sensors, not simply fool them
- there must be ‘dire’ consequences for the missile’s IR system
- an end to the ongoing countermeasure/counter-countermeasure cycle
Focus on jamming hinders progress

InfraRed Power Technology Our technology
Tested against various, then current (1995), scanning surface-to-air and air-to-air IR homing system missiles and proved effective in causing catastrophic sensor damage in all cases. Among these, the SA13 Gopher, the Kentron V3B and the Matra Magic.
o Proven, eye safe spectral technique against IR homing head sensors and critical optical elements
o Effective against Scanning & IIR
Problem: A chemical laser
o Master threat suppression option
o Almost instantaneous technical kill

InfraRed Power Technology Investment for Technology Demonstrator
o B.O.M. accounts for approximately $1 million in the first 4 monthso Commercialization stage: – approximately $20 million over 2 year
o 2-1/2 year demonstrator phase requires approximately $5 million
o Risk Reward Ratio attractive considering market potential & current competition

Risk-Reward
+ thermal guidance & targeting systems
Significantly improves the already favorable
Risk Reward Ratio
– Basis for anti-RPG, compact HEL weapons and Remote Chem-Bio detection
o The kicker: not a one trick pony!– Existing IIR
