As the opportunity for progress explodes throughout the world thanks to the exponential growth of information technologies, so does the danger that the same technologies will be used against a nation and its people. Both to foster new growth and to repel the influence of destructive forces, nations must invest in new military and aerospace technologies. Whether a government run development house, or a privately owned contractor, ensuring the range of products -- from defensive missiles and armor to small arms ammunition to cutting-edge air and space crafts -- function and operate as intended requires sufficient testing.

Whether producing for military or civilian use, general testing is always necessary to perfect the function and quality of equipment and vehicles. On the military side, range, airborne and ballistics measurements may be recorded in use, or in controlled environments such as a wind tunnel. Then there are the alternate tests with very specific goals and equally specific needs. For all of these needs, and those too specialized for common knowledge, IDT offers the cameras fast enough to capture the supersonic speeds and light enough to reach the highest altitudes for satisfying those working in these industries.
