Another one is that the target flight module designed as required for follow-on space LABS can test and verify the key skill while completing the task of rendezvous and docking.

Photos taken from the bird in flight could be captured within hundreds of feet of the target, producing much more detailed pictures than other image-capturing methods.

This new capability provides the warfighter with the ability to provide target updates, retarget the weapon while in flight and abort, and provides bomb hit indication (BHI).
