FIELD: training aids designed to control manipulations of gunner over mechanisms of laying of tank gun ( stabilizers, hoisting and turning gears ). SUBSTANCE: testing and training aid is manufactured in the form of panel-screen mounted on support of laser radiator put on rack and pinion gear near muzzle of gun or its mock-up. Front end of radiator carries shutter operating with pressure on button SHOT located on handle of control desk of stabilizer or on handle of gear of vertical laying of gun. Panel-screen presents shaped curve on which electric bulbs are positioned. Radiation detectors placed into electric supply circuit of each bulb to convert luminous energy of laser beam to electric one are arranged equidistantly under bulbs forming by this signal of break of supply circuit of bulb which is registered on desk recording training results having electric communication with electric circuit of panel-screen. EFFECT: automation of training process and evaluation of manipulations of the trained, diminished time needed to prepare device for operation. 7 dwg
