First Claim
1. A system for determining a course of action for a vehicle, said system comprising:
- an altitude module containing a list of types of threats, the list including a predetermined threshold time for maximum safe visibility by the vehicle for each type;
a threat detection module for detecting threats;
a route module for storing a planned route for the vehicle; and
a threat avoidance module for determining types of the threats detected by said threat detection module, said threat avoidance module utilizing the predetermined threshold times from said altitude module for each threat detected by said threat detection module to determine whether the planned route may safely enter visibility range of each threat detected by said threat detection module.

Abstract
A system determines a course of action for a vehicle. The system includes an altitude module, a threat detection module, a route module, and a threat avoidance module. The altitude module contains a list of types of threats. The list includes a predetermined threshold time for maximum safe visibility by the vehicle for each type. The threat detection module detects threats. The route module stores a planned route for the vehicle. The threat avoidance module determines types of threats detected by the threat detection module. The threat avoidance module utilizes the predetermined threshold times from the altitude module for each threat detected by the threat detection module to determine whether the planned route may safely enter visibility range of each threat detected by the threat detection module.
