METHOD OF AIMING AT DROPPING LOADS INTO A POINT OF THE EARTH'S SURFACE FROM A MANEUVERING AIRCRAFT Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC F41G9/00 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aircraft aiming means when dropping cargoes from an aircraft. Essence of invention consists in fact that current values of phase coordinates of aircraft and target are measured, solving problem of prediction of phase coordinates of maneuvering aircraft motion, generating coordinates signal of aircraft launching path coordinates. Generating director signals of current overload and bank and preset overload and bank required for flight along the launching path. Time interval before discharge is formed. When director signals reach preset overload, bank or time remaining before discharge, aircraft guidance is controlled by combining director signals of preset and current overload and preset and current bank. For current values of speed and angle of inclination of trajectory, minimum safe height of drop point is determined, for which problem of drop cargo is solved, and generating a signal of coordinates of the circle of drop points, which provide hitting the target, generating a signal of coordinates of the surface of the cylinder crossing the circle of drop points and containing a point of the current position and a predicted trajectory of the maneuvering aircraft. Mismatch signal is isolated between the current position and the predicted trajectory of the maneuvering aircraft, correcting the signals of the specified overload and the specified bank with a mismatch signal for reaching the trajectory of withdrawal.

EFFECT: higher accuracy of cargo delivery from curvilinear trajectories.
