Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Waffensystem mit einer Waffe (1), einer Richtanlage (2) und einer mit der Waffe verschießbaren Munitionseinheit (4).
Um sowohl unterschiedliche Munitionsarten als auch bei unterschiedlichen Losen der gleichen Munitionsart eine hohe Erst-Treffer-Wahrscheinlichkeit der zu verschießenden Munition auf einfache Weise zu ermöglichen, schlägt die Erfindung vor, das herkömmliche mittels Feuerleitrechner gesteuerte Waffensystem durch das Systemzusammenspiel eines Munitions- und Gerätegesteuerten Waffensystems zu ersetzen. Dieses wird dadurch erreicht, daß an oder in der jeweiligen Munitionseinheit (4) ein erster Mikrocontroller (6) mit einem Datenspeicher (19) zur Speicherung und Vorverarbeitung der munitionsspezifischen Daten vorgesehen ist. Im geladenen Zustand der Waffe (1) findet dann ein Datenaustausch zwischen dem ersten Mikrocontroller (6) und der externen Richtanlage (2) sowie zwischen dem Mikrocontroller (6) und den für die ziel- und waffenspezifischen Daten vorgesehenen Dateneingabeeinrichtungen (8,9,12, 13) statt, so daß der Mikrocontroller (6) der jeweiligen Munitionseinheit (4) die Funktion der herkömmlichen Feuerleitanlage übernimmt. Gegebenenfalls kann zwischen dem ersten Mikrocontroller (6) und den externen Baueinheiten (8,9,12,13) ein zweiter in bezug auf die Munitionseinheit externer Mikrocontroller (6') geschaltet werden.
