| 6427598 | Method and device for correcting the predetermined disaggregation time of a spin-stabilized programmable projectile The determination of the active projectile velocity required for the correction computation and the correction of the disaggregation time (Tz(vo) are performed in a projectile after it has been fired. The velocity measurement takes place in the... | 08/06/2002 |
| 6422119 | Method and device for transferring information to programmable projectiles The transmission of the disaggregation time takes place in the area of the conveying path of the projectiles (18) between a a magazine of the gun and the start of the flight path of the projectile (18), wherein the disaggregation time (Tz(Vo_typ)) is corr... | 07/23/2002 |
| 5834675 | Method for determining the disaggregation time of a programmable projectile It is possible to improve the hit probability of programmable projectiles by means of this method. For this purpose a predetermined optimal disaggregation distance (Dz) between a disaggregation point (Pz) of the projectile (18) and an impact point (Pf) on... | 11/10/1998 |
| 5814756 | Method and device for determining the disaggregation time of a programmable projectile It is possible to improve the hit probability of programmable projectiles by means of this method. For this purpose a predetermined optimal disaggregation distance (Dz) between a disaggregation point (Pz) of the projectile (18) and an impact point (Pf) on... | 09/29/1998 |
| 5814755 | Method for determining the disaggregation time, in particular of a programmable projectile It is possible to improve the hit probability of programmable projectiles by means of this method. For this purpose a predetermined optimal disaggregation distance (Dz) between a disaggregation point (Pz) of the projectile (18) and an impact point (Pf) on... | 09/29/1998 |
| 5787785 | Method and device for programming time fuses of projectiles In this more cost-effective, less elaborate method, the disintegration time is calculated from a predetermined muzzle velocity and a distance to the target and is transmitted to a receiver coil prior to firing. The receiver coil is connected via a compara... | 08/04/1998 |
| 5413029 | System and method for improved weapons systems using a Kalman filter In a device and method for predicting a future muzzle velocity of an indirect fire weapon 3, 7 means 9, 11 responsive to a measurement of muzzle velocity are adapted to implement an adaptive empirical prediction method to predict the future muzzle velocit... | 05/09/1995 |
| 5121672 | System for carrying out shelling of a target by means of a rapid-firing ordnance piece A method for carrying out shelling of a target with a plurality of ammunition units fired successively from a single barrel rapid-firing ordnance piece includes supplying data to a computer means regarding the target to be shelled, generating by the compu... | 06/16/1992 |
| 4125055 | Control switch for ammunition selection for weapons A control switch for the input of a signal into a fire direction computer to select the ammunition for weapons from which a plurality of types of ammunition can be selectively fired. The control switch includes a plurality of switches each corresponding t... | 11/14/1978 |
