Abstract: The test methods of the target identification and location for reconnaissance vehicles are elaborated systematically aiming at the trend that most of the modern reconnaissance vehicles are equipped with the advanced reconnaissance systems, such as visible CCD imaging system, infrared imaging system, laser rangefinder, inertial navigation system and satellite location system. The methods refer to the test methods of testing field, recognition range, laser rangefinding, orientation/location and the method of data processing. The synthetic performance of reconnaissance vehicles can be assessed and the vehicles can be accepted according to the test methods.
