At the heart of that shift is the AN/AAQ-37 Distributed Aperture System (DAS), an integrated suite of six infrared sensors mounted around the airframe that together provide the pilot with full spherical coverage — in effect, giving the F-35 an all-direction, 360° “eye” that watches every possible threat vector day and night, without pilot intervention.
