TANK ARMAMENT CONTROL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: hardware components of fire control of military, for example, armored equipment, equipped with an artillery armament system and hardware components of measurement of the values of factors influencing the accuracy of fire. SUBSTANCE: the tank armament control system has a sight-range finder with a button for switching on the cycle of automatic gun loading, armament stabilizer, tank ballistic computer, potentiometers for manual input of corrections for air temperature, variation of the shell muzzle velocity depending on the lot of charges, atmospheric pressure, wear of the gun bore, charge temperature, and automatic sensors of wind speed, tank roll, speed and relative bearing. The tank ballistic computer is connected to the inputs of the sight and range finder, potentiometer for manual input of corrections for variation of the shell muzzle velocity depending on the lot of charges and automatic sensors of tank roll, speed and relative bearing, and for running- to the armament stabilizer. The system is provided with a control unit, two switchboards, error computing and comparing units, data storage unit, display unit, potentiometer for manual input of correction for air speed, automatic sensors of atmospheric pressure, air temperature, charge temperature and wear of the gun bore. The inputs of the first switchboard are connected to one of the outputs of the comparing unit, potentiometers for manual input of corrections for air temperature, atmospheric pressure, wear of the gun bore, charge temperature, wind speed; the inputs of the second switchboard are connected to one of the outputs of the comparing unit, automatic sensors of wind speed, atmospheric pressure, air temperature, charge temperature, wear of the gun bore. The inputs of the error computing unit are connected to the switchboard outputs, and its output - to the input of the comparing unit, whose second input is connected to the output of the data storage unit, whose input is connected to one of the outputs of the control unit, whose other two outputs are connected to the inputs of the switchboards, whose outputs are connected to the inputs of the tank ballistic computer, whose one of the outputs is connected to the input of the control unit, the button for switching on the cycle of automatic gun loading is connected to one of the inputs of the control unit, and the display unit is connected to one of the outputs of the comparing unit. EFFECT: enhanced accuracy of fire due to objective monitoring of the truth of information required for preparation of a shot and automation of selection and input of the actual values of measurands. 1 dwg
