Description

The proposal relates to means of simulating moving air targets and can be used to refine the technical characteristics, monitor the technical conditions of anti-aircraft systems with various guidance systems (thermal, radar, optical, etc.), as well as training calculations of the said systems, including during training firing.

Known target complex 9F866 as part of the launch complex 9P339 and missile simulator 9F870 air target (Operation manual 3.190.00.000.RE, Kovrov, OJSC ZiD, 2007).

With sufficiently high efficiency, simplicity and low price of the components of the complex, it has a structurally disadvantage: the target is in flight for a limited time (about 30 seconds) and, therefore, this complex cannot be used to solve a number of research and educational problems.

A known set of equipment E25 with an aircraft-type target in the simulator for training operators of portable anti-aircraft systems - MANPADS (patent for utility model RU No. 844959, F41G 3/26, 07/20/2009), adopted as a prototype. The target is equipped with an autopilot and a radio modem, while the second radio modem is installed at the instructor's workplace and connected to one of the inputs of the computer calculator.

This target can be in the air for a long time - dozens of minutes. The control of the target in flight is carried out with a ground computer. The instructor, using a special program recorded in the calculator, prepares the route with reference to the terrain. After the launch of the aircraft, its flight control is carried out as follows: using the on-board satellite navigation system, the coordinates of the aircraft are determined, which are transmitted via the reverse (from board to the ground) communication channel to the computer, where they are processed and displayed on the video monitor as a flight path. Next, the control program of the calculator after processing the parameters generates a command, which is transmitted via a radio modem to the aircraft. If necessary, the instructor can transfer control of the aircraft from automatic to manual mode.

The disadvantages of the prototype include the impossibility of controlled flight of the target in the event of loss of radio communication with the ground control point, for example, due to the aircraft leaving the line of sight of the ground antenna (in particular, flying at low altitude behind a hill - when simulating a flight of an air attack means with enveloping terrain) , because for a number of reasons, communication is used in the decimeter wavelength range.

The objective of the invention is to develop the design of a universal target complex with optimized target control, which allows to simulate a wide range of characteristics of various modern means of air attack.

The technical result of the invention is to expand the technical capabilities of the complex, increase its reliability and versatility, provide an opportunity to assess the actual result of shooting, improve the quality of combat training of anti-aircraft gunners.

The specified technical result is achieved in that in the target complex, consisting of an aircraft-type target having an autopilot, a system for determining trajectory parameters and a radio modem; the ground control point, which incorporates a second radio modem connected to a computer computer, new is that the target is equipped with an on-board computer with random access memory; an autopilot, a system for determining trajectory parameters, a modem are connected to the computer.

In addition, the target can be equipped with devices (both single and in any combination):

- emitters (light, heat, radio-electronic, etc.);

- reflectors (radar, optical, etc.);

- false targets (radar, thermal, etc.) with the possibility of their shooting on the flight path;

- miss registration system of the attacking object.

The combination of structural elements, the relationship between them can improve the reliability of the target, to provide imitation with a high degree of correspondence trajectory, reflective, radiative and noise-stopping characteristics of various air attack equipment.

Providing the target with an on-board computer with random access memory, connecting an autopilot, a system for determining trajectory parameters, and a modem to the computer allows the aircraft to fly according to a program incorporated in the random-access memory outside the line of sight of the antenna of the ground control station, as well as at a distance exceeding the radio communication distance between the onboard and terrestrial transceivers (modems with antenna devices).

The supply of the target with various devices: emitters, reflectors, false targets expands the technical capabilities of the simulator of an air target, increases its versatility.

The use of a miss registration system of an attacking object allows us to evaluate the actual effectiveness of firing.

The complex works as follows.

The location of the starting positions of the anti-aircraft systems and the trajectory parameters of the target are determined by the combat training or research task.

Depending on the type of anti-aircraft systems (with a passive thermal principle of guidance, radar, optical, etc.), as well as the task, the target can be equipped with one or another imitation and other equipment.

The target flight program (trajectory parameters depending on time) is entered into the computer calculator of the ground control station. Next, the program is broadcast over the air to the target and is installed in the random access memory of the on-board computer. The target is ready to launch.

As soon as all units (or MANPADS operators) are ready, the firing manager (or instructor of the MANPADS training complex) sets the task and gives a command to launch the target, which, depending on the design (size) of the target, is made either using launchers (for example, pneumatic) or "with the hand." The target flies along a given route with the required dynamic parameters.

It is possible to simultaneously launch several targets with various equipment and flight programs.

Anti-aircraft gunners in accordance with the task make the detection, capture, tracking of the target, can also be fired at targets (rifle, cannon or missile weapons).

During the flight of the target, the current trajectory characteristics are issued to the on-board computer by the system for determining trajectory parameters, which can be satellite, inertial, or combined. The calculator processes this data together with the data stored in the random access memory (coordinates, including altitude; heading, speed, etc., in relation to time) and generates commands that are transmitted to the autopilot (and then to the executive devices - engine (s), steering gears, etc.).

It is possible to transfer aircraft control from automatic to manual mode or to introduce an adjustment in the on-board flight program.

From the board to the ground, the trajectory and other parameters of the aircraft, as well as other data, where they can be displayed on a video monitor, can be transmitted to the computer of the ground control station via radio channel.

In order to simulate the emitting and / or reflective characteristics of a particular air attack weapon, an aircraft can be equipped with one or more different types of emitters (light, thermal, electronic, etc.) and / or reflectors (radar, optical, etc.).

In order to ensure interference-stopping characteristics, the target aircraft can be equipped with false targets (radar, thermal, etc.). Teams for their shooting at the right time can be given on board from a ground control point, or issued by the on-board computer according to the established program.

The target can be equipped with a miss registration system for an attacking object (for example, an anti-aircraft missile), while the value of the actual miss value when a missile passes by a target can be transmitted to the ground via a radio channel.

The target complex may include several targets, in addition, a separate (including additional) delivery of targets to the customer is possible.

According to the proposed technical solution, target complexes can be manufactured as independent products, incl. using self-propelled chassis (for example, automobiles), and in the form of components that are part of other systems, for example, simulators for training MANPADS operators.

Checks of the proposed device have shown the effectiveness and correctness of the selected technical solutions; State tests of various device designs and measures for their adoption by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation are currently underway.
