Abstract :
This paper describes how the electro-optic test bench ground support test equipment for the TOW Missile has been pressed into extended service even though it is not supported and is obsolete. A new COTS PXI-based test system and optical bench has been designed to replace the obsolete test set for all versions of TOW.
