Definitions

  • the invention relates to a training ammunition system for rocket launchers, the associated original rockets of which have detonators which, before starting, carry out data exchange with an external fire control device via data lines, with a training rocket which can be used in the guide device of the rocket launcher and which has an igniter for firing its rocket engine (see DE 32 11 011 A1)
  • Training ammunition systems are used to train the teams involved in the launch of missiles, the missiles of which have a simpler structure than the original missiles and are accordingly cheaper.
  • the practice rockets are sub-calibrated, ie they have a smaller outer diameter than the original rockets, but practice rockets with the same dimensions as the original rockets can also be used.
  • Modern rocket launchers are set up so that There must be a flow of data and signals between the weapon and ammunition before the rocket can be launched. For example, it is necessary to check certain functions of the rocket before launch and to inform the rocket of the trajectory or the time of the discharge of ammunition or other parts. Furthermore, the battery contained in the rocket is only activated shortly before launch.
  • the rocket launcher is equipped with a fire control device which, prior to launch, engages in a dialog with the detonator which forms the central data collection unit of the rocket. If you want to launch training rockets from such a rocket launcher, then the data and signal flow is also necessary before the fire control device releases the rocket launch.
  • the training rockets are equipped with the same detonator as the original rockets, ie the same complex electronic functions are carried out in the training rocket as in the original rocket.
  • the detonators are expensive, and their size and location on some missiles is such that such detonators cannot be used on sub-caliber missiles.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a practice ammunition system of the type mentioned, with which such practice rockets can be launched that are not equipped with the detonator of the original rocket.
  • an external simulation device to which the lighter of the practice rocket can be connected and which, after this lighter has been connected, has the additional functions simulated the original rocket and, based on these simulated functions, exchanged data with the fire control device.
  • a simulation device is arranged outside the training rocket, which simulates those functions which are carried out on or in the rocket in the case of original rockets. This makes it possible to use simpler and less expensive practice rockets.
  • the fire control device By interposing the simulation device between the rocket and the fire control device, the fire control device is pretended that an original rocket is in the tube of the rocket launcher.
  • the data exchange between the fire control device and the simulation device takes place in the same way as the data exchange between the fire control device and the detonator or the data device of an original rocket. Since the simulation device is not part of the practice rocket, but remains on the rocket launcher, it can be used as often as required.
  • the expensive electronics of the simulation device are not destroyed after the rocket launch.
  • training rockets do not have to contain a data device, but that only the functions of the igniter of the rocket engine have to be checked before starting.
  • Sub-caliber missiles can be launched from the tube of the rocket launcher that do not have a detonator that fills the tube cross-section.
  • the simulation device which can be connected to the fire control device via multiple plugs, is expediently attached to the rocket launcher.
  • This simulation device can also be attached to an exchangeable launch container of the rocket launcher. Important is that the simulation device does not take part in the rocket launch and is not destroyed together with the rocket.
  • the simulation device can contain assemblies of the detonator of an original rocket or essentially consist of such a detonator.
  • a rocket launcher 11 is mounted on a vehicle 10.
  • the rocket launcher 11 can be tilted by hydraulic cylinders 12 to set the starting angle to the horizontal.
  • the rocket launcher 11 is a multiple launcher with a housing 13 that can accommodate two launch containers 14, each of which contains six tubes 15. Each tube 15 is suitable to receive a missile, so that a total of twelve missiles with the missile launcher 11 can be started without reloading.
  • Fig. 1 shows the rocket launcher 11 in the unloaded state, ie without the original missile.
  • a plug-in device 16 is attached in one of the tubes 15 and serves to receive a sub-caliber practice rocket 17.
  • the insertion device 16 has a training tube 18 which is sub-calibrated with respect to the tube 15 and runs coaxially with the tube 15.
  • the exercise tube 18 is provided with a support star 19 which centers the exercise tube in the interior of the tube 15.
  • Rods 19 'running in the longitudinal direction of the tube 15 lead from the support star 19 to a support device 20 which positions the training tube 18 at its rear end in the tube 15.
  • the practice rocket 17 is launched from the practice tube 18.
  • This practice rocket contains a propellant 21, an igniter 22 for starting the propellant, an explosive device 22 and at its tip an impact detonator 23 for the explosive device 22. From the igniter 22, an ignition line 24 leads out of the practice rocket 17. If an ignition voltage is applied to the ignition line 24, the igniter 22 is activated and the propellant charge 21 is started.
  • the associated ground line which connects the igniter 22 to the ground potential of the launch container 14, is not shown.
  • a practice rocket 17 can be used in the manner described in each of the tubes 15 of a launch container 14.
  • the ignition line 24 is connected via a plug 25 to a connecting line 26 which leads to the simulation device 27.
  • the simulation device 27 is via a ground line 28 connected to each of the launch containers 14.
  • the simulation device 27 is connected to the fire control device 29 of the rocket launcher 11. For the sake of clarity, this connection is shown in such a way that a line bundle 30 transmits data from the simulation device 27 to the fire control device 29 and that another data bundle 31 transmits data from the fire control device 29 to the simulation device 27.
  • the simulation device 27 contains the essential assemblies of the detonator of an original rocket and it checks whether the practice rockets 17 contained in the launch containers 14 are ready for launch. If this readiness to start is given, the simulation device 27 simulates the functions of an original rocket, data being exchanged in both directions between the electronic simulation device 27 and the fire control device 29. After this dialogue has ended, the fire control device 29, via the simulation device 27, causes the igniters 22 of the training rockets to be ignited one after the other or together.
  • the simulation device 27 is connected via multiple connectors 32, 33 to the practice rockets 17 on the one hand and to the fire control device 29 on the other hand. It can thus optionally be connected to the fire control device 29 if training rockets are to be launched.
  • the ignition line 24 is disconnected from the connecting line 26.
  • a simulation device 27 is provided for the practice rockets of two launch containers 14.
  • the simulation device 27 is arranged on the rocket launcher 13. It is also possible to provide a simulation device for each launch container 14 and to arrange this simulation device directly on the launch container.
