Laser designator systems (laser designator systems) and related techniques are provided to improve the operational flexibility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). A laser designator system includes an imaging module configured to image a scene according to a first field of view (FOV) of the imaging module; a laser spot tracker configured to detect a plurality of PRF encoded laser spots disposed within the scene and to provide a corresponding plurality of angular positions of the plurality of PRF encoded laser spots within a second FOV of the laser spot tracker; and an optical datum faceplate coupled to and configured to optically align the imaging module and the laser spot tracker to each other and a boresight for the laser designator system defined by the optical datum faceplate.
