PNEUMATIC RADIO LOCATION TARGET SIMULATOR Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC F41H3/00 

FIELD: training equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to means of simulating physical fields of targets and can be applied both for simulating separate objects and for moving vehicles in a convoy along traffic routes when the enemy conducts aerospace and ground-based reconnaissance by radio location reconnaissance means. Pneumatic radio location target simulator (1) comprises a body (2), a reflector (3), and an anchoring cord (4). The body (1) comprises a cylindrical cage (5) whereto a shootable sleeve (6) is inserted, consisting of a round base (7) and spring-loaded walls (8) hinged along the circumference thereof, assembled in the shape of a bud; a locking circle (9) separating the sleeve (6) from the impact deployment mechanism (10) located in the head of the body (2), containing a pressure disk (11) installed telescopically on the cage (5), configured to move freely along the longitudinal axis of the structure, a spring-loaded striker (12) rigidly fixed on the disk (11), an igniter capsule (13), and an explosive chamber (14) with a powder charge (15). The reflector (3) is made in the form of a ball made of an elastic, gas-impermeable shell, located symmetrically wherein on diametric planes are mutually perpendicular reflecting faces made of polymer, metallised, perforated film with stiffeners made of a polymer material. The reflector (3) is connected by means of a nipple (18) with the gas cylinder (19) folded into a pocket made on the reflector (3), the safety pin (21) whereof is secured to the inner side of the locking circle (9) by a pull cord (22). The reflector (3) is folded into the inner space of the sleeve (6). The anchoring cord (4) comprises a transfer inhibitor installed thereon, consisting of a body with a cover for the installation of a metal plate and a cutter placed on the anchoring cord, interacting with the metal plate. The anchor cord (4) is permanently secured to the reflector (3) by one end and to the base of the sleeve (6) by the other end.

EFFECT: expanded range of operating characteristics due to the structural simplification of the spherical corner reflector, possibility of remote installation thereof for a set estimated time, stable generation of the backscattering pattern of the reflector into the upper hemisphere and in the lateral directions, and reduced dependence on external mechanical effects and adverse weather conditions.
