Operational Experience. Operation Iraqi Freedom I: March-May 2003 Prior to the formal testing process, four prototype systems were installed on four respective USMC M1A1 tanks in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom I (OIF). Comments on the FEP include the following criticism and comments. The position location capability and the ability to range a 7 target and get a ten-digit grid were considered very useful. It proved valuable in fire missions and situation awareness. Some crews felt the fifty-magnification sight needs better resolution but proved useful. Thermal Bloom (washout in the TIS sites from fire trenches and burning vehicles) took one to three minutes of recover. The FEP site engaged vehicles in excess of 2300m. The thermal sight was used by Bravo Company to identify snipers in buildings. The North Finding Module was used as land navigation tool during road marches through Iraq. Worked well in open terrain and built-up areas. In static positions the FEP site was used to provide over watch for the tank company and to friendly infantry patrolling forward of lines. Crews recommended retaining the binocular site at the gunner’s station. The ability to see in both day and night with the GPS and binocular site was very popular and useful to tank gunners (OIF MCSC Field Report p. 4). The evaluations of the individual crews were taken into account and reflected in the final system design. Marine Corps Systems command will field as yet undetermined number of FEP upgrades to M1A1 presently supporting OIF II and III.
