Northrop Grumman Delivers LITENING G4 Targeting System to Royal Danish Air Force

Northrop Grumman has delivered LITENING G4 advanced targeting systems to the Royal Danish Air Force (RDAF) for its F-16 aircraft following a rigorous flight test and evaluation program. The LITENING G4 pods give pilots powerful capabilities for detecting, identifying and tracking targets at long ranges for precision weapon delivery or nontraditional intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.
Denmark becomes the first international partner to receive LITENING G4, the latest configuration of the LITENING advanced targeting system.
The acceptance of the system followed a two-week flight test evaluation program of 25 sorties that verified the pod's performance against the stringent requirements of the RDAF. At the conclusion of the test program, the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) issued a certificate of acceptance for the initial delivery of six LITENING G4 pods, spares, support equipment, training and site activation, with additional systems to follow over the next two months.
Other nations operating LITENING systems include the United States, Australia, Finland, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.
