Abstract
A system for real time wide angle reconnaissance from low flying, high performance aircraft is described. The system combines a multiple lens - linear CCD array, airborne sensor head, an air to ground data link; and a ground based, dry silver film, laser beam recording system that produces hard copy imagery on the ground within 30 seconds of data acquisition.
