SELF-GUIDANCE ACTIVE LASER HEAD Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC F41G7/22 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used in control systems and self-guidance systems of, for examples, missiles. Self-guidance head incorporates optical system to allow angular deflection relative two orthogonal axes of gimbal in response to commands from two-axes system of stabilisation and tracking. Besides, it comprises detection and identification unit, target preset point locator unit and tracking control unit. Also, it exploits memory unit to store the target reference image preset as a prelaunch flight mission. Target designation laser radiator, flat inclined mirrors, spectrum divider, first and second narrow-band optical filters, first and second objective lenses, laser range finder and timing unit are additionally introduced.

EFFECT: reliable high-precision operation at any time at poor illumination, visibility and well-organised counteraction and interferences.
