Sky Soldiers Leverage Cutting-Edge Laser Tech for Precision in the Field
173rd Airborne Brigade
Dec. 16, 2024 | 0:37
VICENZA, Italy – The 173rd Airborne Brigade is integrating the latest military-grade laser range finder to enhance battlefield precision and operational effectiveness.
The advanced technology allows paratroopers to measure distances with pinpoint accuracy, reducing uncertainty in mission planning and execution. The device, which features rapid targeting capabilities and enhanced durability, ensures troops can make split-second decisions with confidence.
The 173rd Airborne Brigade serves as the U.S. Army's Contingency Response Force in Europe, providing rapidly deployable forces to U.S. European, African, and Central Command areas of responsibility. Forward deployed in Italy and Germany, the brigade routinely trains with NATO allies and partners to build relationships and strengthen the alliance.
