Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for actuating a proximity fuse and a device for performing the method.
  • the optimal detonation point is a few 10 m above the target, in order to use the active units released by the detonation of the projectile, e.g. B. High kinetic energy chips to hit these targets from above.
  • a lower explosive point is preferable, e.g. B. a few meters above the target, since such targets can preferably be fought from the side.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method for actuating a proximity fuse that avoids the aforementioned sources of error and ensures optimal use of the projectile. Furthermore, a facility is to be created to carry out the method.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a floor 10, which is in the final approach to a target area in which different target types, for. B. hard goals 13, semi-hard goals 14 and soft goals 15 can be determined.
  • the projectile 10 transports an explosive charge 10a which must be detonated at an optimal height above it in order to effectively combat a target.
  • the projectile 10 has an adjustable proximity fuse 11, which is able to measure the height of the projectile 10 above the ground or above a target and detonate the explosive charge 10a when an adjustable optimum height is reached.
  • the proximity fuse 11 can expediently work according to the radar principle or optically.
  • Conventional ignition circuits enable the proximity igniter 11 to respond as a result of programming or. Setting when shooting at a preset height above the ground. Whether this height actually represents the optimal control height above the target depends on the quality of the reconnaissance results and is therefore subject to great uncertainties.
  • the invention avoids this disadvantage by additionally providing a target sensor 17 on the floor 10 which is able to distinguish different target types.
  • This target sensor is coupled to the proximity igniter 11 in such a way that - depending on the recognition of a specific target type - it causes it to respond at the optimum level for combating the detected target.
  • the target sensor 17 can be, for example, a metal detector that reacts to metal masses when approaching and is therefore able to detect armored and / or unarmored vehicles.
  • the target sensor 17 also works according to the radar principle and can determine its presence by transmitting and receiving radiation, in particular reflected from metallic targets. If a metallic, semi-hard target is determined, the target sensor 17 triggers the triggering of the distance igniter 11 at the optimal explosive height H1 for this target type, which is a few 10 m
  • the target types 13, 14 are effectively combatted, in particular by fragments with high kinetic energy, which are formed from the shell of the projectile 10 when the explosive charge 10a is detonated.
  • the target sensor 17 does not detect a target of the hard or semi-hard type 13, 14, it prevents the proximity fuze 11 from responding until the projectile 10 has reached the optimum height H2 above ground to combat a soft target 15. Since the optimum blasting height no longer has to be set by hand and the current battlefield situation is only evaluated directly on the final approach of the projectile 10, operating errors and incorrect blasting heights can be avoided, so that extremely effective targeting is made possible.
  • Fig. 2 shows the device for performing the method as a block diagram.
  • the proximity fuse 11 is connected to the explosive charge 10a.
  • the proximity fuse 11 can be triggered in two different heights H1 and H2, for example, and detonate the explosive charge 10a.
  • a target sensor 17, which is able to recognize certain target properties, is connected to the proximity fuse 12.
  • it can be a metal detector that detects the presence of metallic components or it can also be a radar transmitter / receiver that detects the presence of a target, which is also preferably metallic, on the basis of radiated and reflected electromagnetic energy.
  • This target sensor 17 is linked to the proximity fuse 11 via a switching element 11, which is only shown schematically, in such a way that it controls its time of detonation at a certain height above ground or above a target, and in a first switching position the proximity fuse 11 can be at height H1 respond to the earth's surface 16, while in the second switching position it is only activated at the height H2.

Abstract

Circuit de mise à feu pour un projectile (10) avec fusée détonatrice de proximité (11) qui peut être réglée pour différentes distances de cibles (H1, H2). Afin de combattre de la meilleure manière possible différents type de cibles (13, 14, 15), la fusée détonatrice de proximité (11) est équipée d'un détecteur de cibles (17) qui recueille des caractéristiques de cibles particulières et garantit que la fusée détonatrice de proximité (11) reßgit soit déjà à la distance (H1) soit seulement à la distance (H2) et fait exploser une charge explosive (10a).

Claims (4)

1. Procédé pour actionner une fusée détonatrice de proximité réglable sur des distances à la cible différentes, dans le cas d'un projectile, caractérisé en ce qu'au moyen d'un détecteur de cibles (17) prévu dans le projectile (10), on détecte des propriétés caractéristiques de cibles (13, 14,15) se trouvant dans la zone de cibles, et en ce que, sous la commande du détecteur de cibles (17), on fait réagir la fusée de proximité (11), selon la nature de la cible détectée par le détecteur de cibles (17), à des hauteurs (H1, H2) au-dessus de la surface (16) du sol différentes.
2. Dispositif pour mettre en oeuvre le procédé selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce qu'il est prévu dans le projectile (10), en plus de la fusée détonatrice de proximité (11), un détecteur de cibles (17) qui règle, en fonction de la nature de la cible détectée, la fusée de proximité (11) sur l'instant d'amorçage optimum pour l'attaque de la cible.
3. Dispositif selon la revendication 2, caractérisé en ce que le détecteur de cibles (17) est un détecteur de métaux et/ou un émetteur récepteur radar.
4. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 2 et 3, caractérisé en ce que le détecteur de cibles (17) et la fusée de proximité (11) sont ressemblés en un même module et comprennent un émtteur- récepteur radar permettant de détecter à la fois la hauteur du projectile (10) au-dessus du sol (H1, H2) et des propriétés caractéristiques des cibles.
