METHOD FOR CONDUCTING OF FIRE AND FIRE-CONTROL SYSTEM OF HIGH-RATE GUNS Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: military equipment, in particular, antiaircraft mountings with a high-rate gun armament and a control system containing radar and optoelectronic aids of target detection and tracking. SUBSTANCE: method for conducting of fire by high-rate guns against targets, multiple targets inclusive, consists in detection, identification and tracking of targets, assignment of the target for shielding, determination of the time of target finding in the fire zone, duration of the burst of fire and target shelling, depending on the time of target finding in the fire zone, the quantity of the burst of fire during target shelling is determined. The time from the moment of the last shot of the previous target shelling to the moment of opening of fire of the subsequent shelling is fixed, and then, depending on this time and the quantity of bursts of fire during shelling with the use of the empirical coefficients, the time of the immediate fire, duration of ach burst and the intervals between the bursts in accordance with which the target shelling is being conducted, are successively determined. The method is realized in the fire-control system of high-rate guns containing the aids of target detection, identification and tracking, computing system, comprising a unit for selection of the target for shelling, computation unit of target zone parameters, gun drive laying signal drives, high-rate gun having an electrical trigger and the slide front position sensor. The computing system uses two pulse selectors, AND gate, series-connected unit for computation of the target shelling condition parameters, and a fire-control signal generator, whose first input is simultaneously connected to the gun electrical trigger and the signal inputs of the pulse selectors, whose selector inputs are connected respectively to the second and third outputs of the fire- control signal generator. The output of the first pulse selector, via the AND gate, whose second input is connected to the slide front position sensor, is connected to the timer starting input, whose release input is connected to the output of the second pulse selector, and the timer output is connected to the second input of the unit for computation of the target shelling condition parameters, whose first input is connected to the output of the zone parameters computing unit. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of target shelling at a repulse of intensive raids due to optimized condition of fire of the high-rate gun with due account made for the allowable temperature intensity of barrels. 2 cl, 1 dwg
