Description

The invention relates to the field of military equipment, in particular to methods for increasing the effectiveness of a fire control system for samples of armored weapons (BTV).

Known methods for improving the efficiency of observation and destruction of BTV targets, for example, for the BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle, in which, to provide target monitoring, target range detection, target designation and fire adjustment in day and night conditions, it is used TKN-3B device, the set of which includes the TKN-3B surveillance device and the OU-3GA2 illuminator located in the tower — in the commander’s hatch (see Technical Description and Operating Instructions for the infantry fighting vehicle (BMP-2). Part One. Publisher the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation in 2001, p. 10, 13, 14, 154. Open publication).

In addition, there is a method of increasing the efficiency of observation and destruction of BTV targets for a tank support combat vehicle (BMPT), in which, to provide surveillance of the terrain, search and detection of targets, determine the range to targets, target designation, correction and firing in daytime, night and in bad weather conditions, sights with thermal imaging, optical, low-level television channels, an ATGM guidance channel and a laser range finder, a set of automatic sensors for firing conditions and an automatic tracking device are used goals (see. Author: © Andrey BTVT.narod.ru. Article. Tank support combat vehicle (BMPT "Frame"). Link. Access mode: http://btvt.narod.ru/3/bmpt.htm, free. Open Edition Prototype).

The known method of increasing the efficiency of observation and destruction of BTV targets allows you to monitor the terrain, provide search, detection and recognition of targets both from the spot and immediately, adjust the fire at any time of the day and under weather conditions.

However, this method has the following disadvantages:

- a high number of crew members involved in the process of providing search, detection and recognition of targets, as well as adjusting and firing from different types of weapons of the machine;

- does not allow for the possibility of duplication of firing by the commander of a vehicle from two course automatic grenade launchers installed on it (firing is carried out by two rocket launchers);

- occupation of free volume by crew members (two grenade launcher jobs) can be used to place additional ammunition for weapons or other machine systems;

- does not allow the commander of the machine to simplify the decision in choosing the type of weapons used according to the target seen on the battlefield at a certain range and terrain conditions.

The objective of the present invention is to increase the effectiveness of surveillance, to assist the commander in choosing the type of weapon necessary to more accurately defeat the observed target, increase the ammunition load of the weapon, enable the commander to remotely control all types of weapons of the vehicle, reduce the time of detection of the enemy and thereby increase the likelihood of his defeat .

The technical result of the proposed invention is to increase the effectiveness of surveillance, to assist the commander in choosing the type of weapon necessary to more accurately defeat the observed target, increase the useful booked volume with the possibility of placing additional ammunition or other systems in it, providing the commander with the ability to remotely control all types of weapons of the vehicle, reduce the time of detection of the enemy, increasing the likelihood of his defeat.

The technical solution of the proposed invention is the additional installation of a reconnaissance station, a signal processing unit, an information display device (monitor) on a BTV sample, allowing simultaneously with optical monitoring of the terrain to conduct radar (thermal imaging) surveillance and inform the crew about the observed targets, their type, range to them , assist in deciding on the choice of the most effective type of weaponry for hitting a target under given conditions.

At the same time, a method for increasing the efficiency of observation and destruction of BTV targets is based on the fact that a reconnaissance station is installed on the BTV sample, which detects a target located on the ground in the radar (infrared) wavelength range, determines the range to it, its type, transmits a signal to the unit signal processing, which analyzes the choice of the type of weapon, which is more effective for hitting a detected target in these conditions. The conditions are the range to the target and its type. Having performed the analysis, the signal processing unit transmits a signal to the armament control drive, the type of which was chosen as more effective (that is, taking into account factors such as the probability of hitting the target, minimizing the consumption of ammunition for its reliable destruction, etc.). The corresponding type of armament is being turned towards the seen target. Target data is also sent to the information display device (monitor), which informs the crew of the observed target. The operator switches the switch of the type of weapon located on the weapon control panel to the position of choosing the type of weapon required and, using this panel, controls the weapon and fires from the weapon.

A method of increasing the efficiency of target observation and destruction by armored weapons, including sights with thermal imaging, optical, low-level television channels, an ATGM guidance channel and a laser range finder, a set of automatic sensors for firing conditions and a target tracking machine, characterized in that an intelligence station is additionally installed on the armored weapon model , with the help of which the target is detected, the range is determined to it, its type, the signal is transmitted via electrical wires to the processing unit and signals that are used to analyze the choice of weapon type, transmit a signal to the weapon guidance drive, rotate the selected weapon type in the direction of the observed target, transmit target data to the information display device (monitor), inform the crew of the observed target, transfer the weapon type switch to the armament control panel to the position of choosing the necessary type of armament, and using the armament control panel and armament guidance drive, make adjustments to the type of armament and arrows bu.

показано направление вращения разведывательной станции при поиске целей.The invention is illustrated in figure 1, which shows a device that provides a method for increasing the efficiency of observation from a BTV sample, where: 1 - reconnaissance station; 2 - type of weapons; 3 - sample BTV; 4 - drive guidance weapons; 5 - electric wires; 6 - armament control panel; 7- weapon type switch; 8 - information display device (monitor); 9 - signal processing unit. Figure 1 arrows

shows the direction of rotation of the reconnaissance station when searching for targets.

When conducting surveillance from the BTV 3 sample over the battlefield, the operator uses a reconnaissance station 1, which in the radar (infrared) wavelength ranges searches for targets on the battlefield.

Reconnaissance station 1 is designed to monitor the terrain, recognize targets, determine their range, target designation and adjust fire weapons. When the target appears on the battlefield outside the optical visibility of the observation and aiming devices of the BTV 3 sample, that is, outside the viewing sector, the reconnaissance station 1 transmits a signal via electrical wires 5 to the signal processing unit 9. The signal processing unit 9 is designed to receive and process signals from reconnaissance station 1, processing the information received, namely, comparing the range to the target and its type and deciding on the choice of weapon type 2 of the BTV 3 model, which is more effective for defeating aruzhennoy targets in the given conditions. After choosing the type of weapon 2, the signal processing unit 9 generates a signal and transmits it via electrical wires 5 to that weapon guidance device 4, the weapon type 2 of which was chosen as more effective (factors such as the probability of hitting the target, minimizing the consumption of ammunition for its reliable destruction are taken into account ) The corresponding (selected) type of weapon 2 is rotated towards the seen target. Target data is also sent to an information display device (monitor) 8, which informs the crew of the observed target, its position on the ground relative to the BTV 3 model. The operator switches the weapon type switch 7 located on the weapon control panel 6 to the position for selecting the required type of weapon 2 and with the help of this remote control controls the weapons, fires from it.

An example of the method. When conducting surveillance from the BTV 3 sample, the reconnaissance station 1, having detected a target on the battlefield, recognizing its type and determining its range, transmits a signal through electrical wires 5 to signal processing unit 9, which processes the received information and decides on the choice of weapon type 2 , generates a signal and transmits it via electrical wires 5 to that armament guidance drive 4, type of armament 2, which was chosen as more effective for hitting a target in these conditions. The target data is also sent to the information display device (monitor) 8, which informs the operator about the target position on the ground relative to the BTV 3 model. The weapon is automatically rotated using the weapon guidance drives 4 of the selected weapon processing unit 9 of weapon type 2 towards the observed target. The operator translates the switch type weapons 7, located on the control panel weapons 6, in the position of choosing the necessary type of weapons 2, using the control panel weapons 6 corrects the fire of weapons, hits the target.

The proposed method allows to increase the effectiveness of observation, to assist the commander in choosing the type of weapon necessary for a more reliable defeat of the observed target, to increase the useful booked volume with the possibility of placing additional ammunition or other systems in it, to provide the commander with the ability to remotely control all types of weapons of the vehicle, reduce time detecting the enemy, increasing the likelihood of his defeat.
