Sensor-to-Shooter Latency (SSL)

The clinical measurement of the time interval between target identification in a transparent battlespace and the delivery of kinetic effect.

SSL is the primary metric for the efficiency of the Cloud-to-Kinetic (C2K) Reducing SSL to near-zero allows an adversary to strike high-value targets before they can exit a “flashpoint” or transition to an analog hardening posture.
