Definitions

  • the invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle for controlling ground targets according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • DE-A1 25 19 507 discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle, for example a rocket-powered missile, in which at least one projectile-forming charge is provided as a stationary combat charge.
  • the direction of action of the stationary charge selected in relation to a target is directly aimed at the target.
  • the target is fought, the entire missile is inevitably destroyed after the selected stationary charge has been shot down, so that only a single target has to be fought with the direct fire. If several selected targets must therefore be fought, a correspondingly large number of missiles is required.
  • the object of the invention is to combat ground targets, namely light and heavily armored targets, inexpensively and effectively by means of an unmanned aerial vehicle.
  • the stable approach of the aircraft for example a drone, is an ideal weapon platform with the advantages of reliable detection of the targets due to the low speed of the drone of approx. 250 to 300 km / h with an average attack altitude of approx. 70 m.
  • the targets are combated by projectile-forming charges that are stationary in the drone and arranged in the form of ejectable submunitions.
  • a target lies in the direction of action of the stationary charge arrangement, the ignition is possible without prior correction of the flight position. If, on the other hand, the target lies outside the direction of action of the cargo arrangement, a slight correction of the flight position (e.g. by rolling motion) is sufficient to combat the target.
  • the effectiveness of the drone is increased by the charge arrangement consisting of two or more axially ignitable P charges arranged in parallel. This ensures an increased likelihood of being hit and destroyed, especially for targets that are difficult to fight, such as battle tanks.
  • targets can be combated by a single drone by providing the drone with at least one "ammunition" that can be launched. After the release of one submunition, the drone is stabilized for the further detection of targets and the release of a second submunition or ignition of the stationary charges.
  • the drone Due to the "upwards" submunition, the drone has a high probability of acquisition at very low altitude. Due to the longer time span for the aerodynamic stabilization of the submunition with subsequent detection with a larger usable search radius and the triggering of the projectile-forming charge, the required probability of a hit is present.
  • the deployment area of armored units or other unmanned aerial vehicles can be combated cost-effectively by flying several drones in strips over the target area.
  • the multiple combat of a single target by several drones is largely excluded in a simple manner.
  • each of the projectile-forming charges carried by an aircraft is intended for a selectively different manner of delivery from the carrier, namely in the manner of submunition or in the manner with firing from the aircraft.
  • the choice of the type of delivery of the loads as submunition includes, in the presence of several loads, delivery combinations according to which the delivery is effected individually or in groups with time intervals or all loads at the same time.
  • a drone 1 with delta wings 2, 3 has a multi-part fuselage 4. 2 to 5 projectile-forming charges 35 in the form of stationary charges 6 to 8 and ejectable submunitions 9 to 11 are arranged in a bow section 5.
  • a detection device (not shown) for detecting a detection corridor 16 is accommodated in a subsequent section 15.
  • the upwardly ejectable submunition 9 is arranged in a central section 20 with the center of gravity 21.
  • a battle tank 30 is identified by the detection device with corresponding target data.
  • the submunition 9 is ejected from a container 32 via an ejection charge 31 and stabilized via a parachute 33. In a known manner, the submunition 9 executes a circular movement while hanging on the parachute 33.
  • An autonomous detection device of the submunition 9 triggers the projectile-forming charge 35 when the target is detected.
  • a target 40 which is subsequently detected, is combated by the projectile-forming charge 10.
  • a subsequently detected third target 45 is combated by the projectile-forming charge 6 arranged stationary in the drone.
  • the drone 1 is rotated about its main axis 46 by appropriate control maneuvers of the drone in the direction of arrow 47 to such an extent that the target 45 lies within the effective range of the projectile-forming charge 6.
  • the path of the projectile is designated 48.
  • the projectile-forming charges 6 to 8 are shown in the bow section 5 in a schematic representation.
  • Shock wave-reflecting insulating layers 51, 52 are arranged between said charges 6 to 8. This ensures that with simultaneous detonation of the projectile-forming charges 6 to 8, there is no mutual influence which could interfere with the projectile formation. With these charges it is provided that a target is combated by charges 6 to 8 at the same time. The detonation of the charges leads to the destruction of the bow section 5, which then leads to the drone 1 crashing.
  • the submunitions 9, which can be ejected downwards are arranged.
  • the underside of the drone 1 is designated 53 and the top 54.
  • the stationary charge 6 and the ejectable submunition 10 are accommodated in the bow section 5.
  • the ejectable submunition 9 is arranged in the fuselage section 4 in the area of the center of gravity 21.
  • the directions of action of the charge 6 and the submunition 10 are designated 41, 42.
  • ejectable submunitions 9 to 11 are arranged in the bow section 5 of the drone 1 and in the fuselage section 4.
  • two targets are to be combated, in that the first target is to be combated with the submunition 9 and the second target is to be combated simultaneously with the stationary charges 6 and 7.
  • a single charge can be arranged in the drone in a stationary and ejectable manner.
  • the stationary charges in the drone - viewed in the direction of flight - can also be arranged transversely at an angle to the vertical longitudinal plane.
  • the ejectable submunition can also be fired directly in the manner of a stationary charge.
  • the arrangement of the submunition in the drone with respect to the direction of action of the submunition depends on the type "aerodynamic" of the type of aerodynamic stabilization of the ejected submunition.
  • the submunition can therefore be arranged in the drone so that its direction of action is “upwards” or “downwards”. With the "upward” direction of action, the drone can also be used against helicopters by flying underneath the target and firing the submunition directly. Instead of submunition, an "upward" stationary charge of the drone must also be provided.
