Description

 The invention relates to the field of entertainment, in particular to games, championships that are held in specially equipped areas - complexes that include ground territory, including an airfield with facilities for its functioning, an air zone above the territory of the complex for flying aircraft, aircraft, equipped with means of conditional destruction of targets, ground targets and ground means of destruction of air targets, equipped with means of conditional destruction.

 The popularity of sports championships, attracting a large number of spectators, is known. The victory of the team in the international championship in individual game sports, such as football or hockey, is often perceived by the population as a national holiday.

 A large number of spectators are also attracted by technical sports based on modern technology, such as car racing, aviation competitions. At the same time, sporting events, championships, especially those that use modern types of technology, are vivid entertainment performances. Similarly, spectacular events are exhibitions and salons that demonstrate military equipment, which also attract a large number of spectators.

 However, the circle of people who have access to modern sports equipment and military equipment is mainly limited to specialists who use this equipment or demonstrate it at exhibitions, air shows and other similar events.

 Currently, military games are gaining popularity among the civilian population, which for a long time were used only for the training and education of military personnel in the use of weapons, military equipment and military tactics.

 One example of a popular military game among civilians is the paintball game. In paintball, they use specially created weapons for the game, similar to military, but with a conditional hit on the target, namely a weapon that shoots capsules with a coloring substance, which marks an affected person when hit. As a rule, a game is played in a specially equipped area with a variety of structures: shelters, dugouts, etc. Vehicles can be used to transport participants.

 However, at present the paintball game and the existing weapons for it are adapted only for holding a ground war game.

 In addition to weapons that shoot with coloring capsules, electronic systems that simulate small arms are known. Most of them are based on simulating a shot in the form of a pulse of light radiation from the firing side and indicating the hit with a radiation sensor mounted on the target side. Some of the well-known systems use laser radiation to simulate a shot. An example of an electronic system is the system disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,545,583. This system includes two sets consisting of a targeting device that produces one or a series of pulses of infrared radiation focused into a narrow light beam when the trigger is pulled, and a sensor for this radiation. Armed with such kits, opponents have the ability to aim, as with conventional weapons, and conditionally shoot at each other, while an earlier hit is recorded as a valid electronic device of the system, connected by radio to all devices for conditionally hitting the target.

 A system is known from US Pat. No. 5,002,490 for safely simulating air battles between airplanes or air-ground battles. This system is installed on each of the aircraft participating in the false battle and simulates firing from an onboard gun or machine gun. The system, the principle of which is based on trapping light from an attacked aircraft, in particular, the light of sidelights can be used, contains means for objectively determining the conditional hit. On a hit signal, devices that create various effects (light, sound, smoke) can be turned on to give the battle a realistic character.

 A flight simulator of aviation electronics for simulating a high-speed airplane aboard a cheaper airplane is also known, described in US Pat. No. 5,807,109. A simulated airplane can be a modern expensive military airplane, the flight time and maintenance of which is also very expensive. As a cheap aircraft, a simulator carrier, a civilian aircraft or an outdated military aircraft can be used.

 The aircraft electronics simulator system includes, for example, a radar, a radar warning system, radar countermeasures, weapons systems and navigation systems. The on-board simulator of aviation electronics can be programmed according to various scenarios such as air-to-air, air-to-ground combat, navigation situations, and aircraft system failures.

 The aircraft electronics flight simulator may include communications for transferring data to another aircraft of the same type that carries a compatible simulator system. Data transfer allows a group of pilots to interact either arbitrarily, or according to a scenario, or combine these capabilities. A communication system can also be used to prevent collisions.

 The cockpit of the aircraft on which the simulator is mounted can be modified to simulate the control lever, throttle device and other elements of a particular high-speed aircraft.

 The operation of the described systems, although it is cheaper than using modern military equipment, however, airplanes, especially military ones, remain expensive and practically inaccessible to most civilians. Strict rules of flying in the airspace, especially near settlements, civil airfields, also limit the use of the described systems for games and entertainment.

 Known entertainment complex for the game "laser air battle" or "laser space battle" according to patent US 5114154, intended mainly for amusement parks such as Disney Land.

 The complex, located under the dome to protect against external weather influences, contains mobile platforms for participants equipped with laser systems that simulate laser weapons. Platforms make complex movements in a circle relative to fixed points with rises and falls, rotate around its axis. Participants activate laser systems and shoot when their platforms approach targets above their heads. The targets mimic "enemy" or "friendly" planes or spaceships. For greater effectiveness, the game is accompanied by sounds that mimic the sounds of jets or spaceships, the domed space is filled with smoke for better observation of the laser beam. In addition, there is an automatic fixation of hits on the target and the issuance of an account after a game session to each participant.

 The specified complex is accessible to the general public, but the whole situation is too artificial and far from real air combat, which limits the interest in the game from both potential players and spectators.

 A sports and entertainment complex for playing a game is also known, containing a territory specially equipped for holding the said game using motor vehicles, having two zones in accordance with the parties participating in the game, while the said motor vehicles are equipped with means for conditionally hitting the target, which is the closest analogue (RF patent 2144407, CL. A 63 B 71/02, 2000). From the same source, a method of conducting a game is known, which is an imitation of a battle using at least one motor vehicle equipped with a conditional hit means that the player controls, and the game is played on a complex equipped for playing a game using motor vehicles. At least two teams can participate in the game, each of which is marked with a distinctive sign.

 The above analysis of the prior art, presented by the above-mentioned technical solutions, shows that in the field of entertainment there is a growing but not yet satisfied need for entertainment that simulates fighting with great closeness to reality using modern technical means.

 The basis of the present invention is the task to create a complex for a war game and a method of conducting a war game, providing the fullest possible impression of real battles "air-to-air", "air-to-land", "air-to-sea", characterized by extremely high dynamism and breathtaking entertainment, which are not inherent in any of the above solutions. This will make it possible to attract not only professionals and the military to the complex, but also wide sections of the population, both as direct participants and numerous spectators, and will satisfy the ever-growing interest from the civilian population in paramilitary games, which include young people as well a generation to the study of various modern technical means, contribute to the acquisition and development of skills in the management of complex objects of technology: cars, tanks, armored vehicles, airplanes and, in particular, end-screw, enhance intelligence games participants. The acquisition of skills in the management of military equipment helps to attract young people to military professions.

 According to the invention, a war game complex is adapted to conduct a war game using aircraft and includes an air zone for flights over the territory of the complex.

 The use of airspace in most geographical regions is subject to certain rules and is strictly regulated in order to ensure flight safety.

 The presence of a specially designated air zone for conducting a military game on airplanes and / or helicopters provides the opportunity to safely conduct such a game for everyone, while not creating obstacles for civilian and military aviation.

 The complex is equipped with an airfield and means of conditional target destruction. Aircraft for war games, both included and not included in the complex, are based on the airfield of the complex. Means of conditional destruction of targets are installed on aircraft and other objects imitating military equipment used in a war game.

 For military games, the complex contains aircraft, including airplanes. Aircraft of the complex are equipped with conventional means of target destruction.

 It is advisable that the complex contains military aircraft. The use of military aircraft in the game, ensuring the closest proximity of false air combat to real, creates a high emotionality and entertainment of the game and contributes to the additional attraction of players and spectators to it.

 So that the use of military aircraft does not narrow the circle of potential players, some aircraft of the complex provide separate control of the aircraft and means of conditional destruction of the target. For this, military aircraft are used that have two seats, one of which is intended for piloting the aircraft, which can be occupied by a professional pilot, and the other, equipped with controls for means of conditional destruction of targets, is intended for a player who has the ability to conduct a false battle and direct the actions of the pilot .

 The complex contains aircraft, the equipment of which can allow you to control during the flight installed on them means of conditional destruction of targets from the ground. This additionally provides the opportunity for participation in the game of persons who cannot tolerate the conditions of a real flight on a military aircraft. To create the player’s impression of participation in a real aerial combat, the complex additionally contains a ground control station equipped in the form of an airplane cockpit with means for conditionally hitting targets installed on an aircraft.

 To expand the capabilities of the war game, the complex contains ground-based means of conventional destruction of an air target for conducting an air-ground battle. At the same time, at least one of these means can be installed on a combat vehicle or car and can move around the complex during the war game. The complex also contains ground targets, equipped for their conditional destruction from aircraft.

 According to one of the possible variants of the complex’s implementation, at least part of the complex’s territory is occupied by the water surface of the sea or lake, and the complex contains at least one means of conditionally hitting a water-based air target for conducting an air-sea battle. At the same time, at least one means of conditional destruction of an air target is located on a floating vessel and can move during the game. The ability to conduct hostilities over the water surface expands the diversity of the war game and enhances its entertainment and excitement.

 To expand the capabilities of the complex, it is advisable that a training ground for launching combat missiles from aircraft containing air and ground targets be equipped on the territory of the complex. Moreover, the complex may contain air-to-air and air-to-ground combat missiles, which are installed on aircraft for firing these missiles at targets at the firing range. The presence of these funds allows you to conduct a war game for one participant.

 The complex may also contain facilities for filming a video game of a war game, including a video studio equipped with radio equipment for receiving and transmitting image signals.

 It is advisable that the aircraft have video cameras installed to shoot the player in the cockpit and the space overboard, and also that the complex contains a video studio and means for simultaneously filming a war game from several points of the complex, including vehicles specially designed for this purpose equipped with equipment for video recording and transmission of image signals to a video studio.

 Preferably, the complex contains a satellite communications system for receiving and transmitting images from an artificial Earth satellite and television broadcasts.

 It is also advisable to equip the complex with stands for spectators and the presence of at least one television monitor to show viewers the images of the ongoing military game transmitted to the video studio.

 The availability of funds for filming a video game of a war game: video studios, stands for spectators, and television monitors for spectators ensures that a large number of people are involved in war games held at the complex.

 The problem is also solved by the fact that in the method of conducting a military game, which is an imitation of a battle using at least one aircraft equipped with means for conditionally hitting a target controlled by a player, according to the invention, the game is played on an intended complex containing territory equipped for military games using aircraft, and including an air zone over the territory of the complex.

 Holding a war game of the "air battle" type on a specially equipped complex, including an air zone for flights, does not interfere with air traffic and allows attracting a large number of participants to the war game both as players and spectators.

 In a preferred embodiment, at least one airborne conditional hit system selected from the group is additionally introduced into the game: land-based stationary, land-based, water-based, mounted on a floating vehicle. In addition, firing rockets mounted on the aircraft used in the game at air and ground targets at the training ground of the complex may be included in the game.

 The additional use of means of conditional destruction of ground and water-based air targets in a war game, as well as target shooting, increase the number of players simultaneously participating in it and increase the competitive and entertaining aspects of the game, thereby ensuring the involvement of a large number of both participants and and viewers.

 The adversarial nature of the game is most fully expressed when at least two opposing sides participate in false hostilities, while each side is assigned a certain area of the complex’s territory that contains at least one specified system of conditional destruction of an air target. Depending on the desire of the players, these systems of conditional destruction of an air target can be controlled by both players and employees of the complex.

 It is preferable to conduct a false battle on military aircraft. The use of military aircraft in the game, ensuring the maximum proximity of a false air battle to the real one, creates a high emotionality and entertainment of the game and attracts players and spectators to it.

 According to one embodiment of the implementation of a military game, an aircraft, in particular a military aircraft equipped with means for conditional destruction of a target, can be piloted by a professional pilot, and a player controls means of conditional destruction of a target. In this case, the player can control the said means of conditional destruction of the target from the board of the aircraft in real flight or from the said ground control point.

 A complex for conducting a war game, including an air zone for flying over the territory of the complex, airplanes or means of conditional destruction of targets installed on aircraft that do not belong to the complex, and other equipment of the complex may be provided to players for rent.

 Aircraft, equipping them with conventional means of target destruction, as well as obtaining permission to fly, require large investments and therefore are available to a limited circle of people. The presence of a complex that provides an air zone for safe flights of players and the necessary military equipment for rent removes these restrictions and also expands the circle of potential participants.

 In addition, the participation in the war game of the staff of the complex, as well as professional pilots, allows you to simulate combat operations that are closest to the real ones, practically regardless of the skill of the players and their number, which also helps to attract a large number of people who want to participate in the game and spectators. Controlling the means of conditionally hitting the target of an aircraft from the ground allows people who do not want or cannot bear the conditions of a real flight to participate in the game, for example, significant overloads, which also expands the circle of potential players.

 In the preferred embodiment, film-video shooting of a military game is carried out, including video shooting of players and the space behind each aircraft used in a military game. Various ways of implementing video shooting are possible, in particular, according to one embodiment, video shooting of a military game is carried out simultaneously from several points in the space of the complex. Additionally, especially if the complex occupies a significant territory, video recording of a war game can be carried out from an artificial Earth satellite. Game cassettes can subsequently be provided to players and spectators.

 To increase the entertainment, the war game is shown on at least one monitor, available for viewing to viewers.

 In addition, in order to attract wider masses to the war game, they broadcast the game, as well as its demonstration on the Internet.

 A judicial board is formed to determine the winner in a war game. The panel of judges may include employees of the complex, representatives of the players, as well as spectators.

 It is also advisable to lease the surface of the aircraft complex to accommodate possible advertising. The involvement of the general population in the war game determines the effectiveness of advertising campaigns during the game.

 Additionally, in order to attract attention to the game of wider segments of the population, a war game may be accompanied by a sweepstakes. In addition, a prize pool intended for the winner of the game may also be formed.

 The problem is also solved by the fact that in the method of conducting a military game, which is an imitation of a battle using at least one aircraft equipped with means for conditionally hitting a target controlled by at least one player, according to the invention, the game is held in the form of a championship . Championship can be held in the form of personal and / or team competition. Known patterns of team building and qualifying games may be used.

 It is possible to form teams from many countries, from national armies or from regional military organizations. At the same time, teams compete for world championship.

 In one embodiment, teams represent fictional armies, such as producers of goods and / or services, for the purpose of conducting advertising campaigns.

 The combination of the popularity of sporting events with the interest of the general public in military equipment and war games will ensure the high popularity of the championships of the proposed military game. At the same time, the use of modern military equipment in a war game, including modern military aircraft, combat missiles, which ensure maximum proximity of false air combat to real, creates a high emotionality and entertainment of the game, which leads to the involvement of a large number of spectators in the war game.

 The rules of the military game in the championships are established by the organizers of the championship. In this case, various means of conditional target destruction described above can be used. The opposing teams in the game, representing the armies of different countries, can use, for example, military aircraft that are in service with the respective countries, and these aircraft can be equipped with the same or different means of conditional destruction of the target.

 Film and video broadcasting of the championship games, as well as a demonstration for spectators on at least one real-time monitor and advertising during the games are being conducted.

Further, the invention will be disclosed by examples of its implementation with reference to the drawings, in which:
figure 1 depicts a perspective view of a complex for a military game;
FIG. 2 depicts one of the possible schemes of the system of conditional target destruction, which is part of the equipment of the complex for war games;
figure 3 schematically depicts a plan of a complex for a war game.

 FIG. 1 illustrates a view of a complex containing an equipped area 1 adapted to conduct a war game using aircraft. Above territory 1, there is an air zone 2 for flights, limited in horizontal directions by the borders of the territory of complex 1 and extending upwards to a height allowed for a specific location of the complex, agreed with the competent state authorities.

 During the game, players can make maneuvers on aircraft within the air zone 2. The required size of the air zone depends on the aircraft used in the military game, for example, when using jet aircraft, it is preferable that the air zone 2 of the complex be at least 10 km in length, 10 km wide at an altitude of 3 km. When using small propeller planes or helicopters - at least 3 km per 3 km horizontally and 500 m vertically. The complex may have a significantly large territory and, accordingly, an air zone, if its location allows.

 The complex contains an airfield 3 having a runway 4. The airfield may contain several runways.

 Airfield 3 is equipped with conventional airfield equipment, including a landing system, a radar system, an automatic direction finder, a light-signaling equipment system, meteorological equipment, etc.

 Airfield equipment is carried out in an obvious manner for specialists, depending on the functions of the airfield and the aircraft and other aircraft it serves.

 The complex can be rebuilt, or equipped on the basis of an unused civil or military airfield.

 A variant of the complex’s construction without an aerodrome is possible, while the aerodrome from which the planes participating in the war game take off can be located outside the complex.

 In any of the options, the complex should be equipped with war game controls, which include, for example, control room 5, equipped with conventional airfield air traffic control equipment. Alternatively, an aircraft equipped with a control system, such as, for example, the AWACS system, can be used to control flights and war games.

 The complex contains 6 planes or other aircraft, such as helicopters, for conducting false battles, including air-to-air, air-to-ground and air-to-sea combat.

 In one embodiment, the military game complex is designed to use military high-speed aircraft. In this version, the complex contains, for example, such aircraft equipped with modern avionics as Russian fighters MIG-29, SU-33; US Air Force P16 Falcon fighter manufactured by Lockheed, P15 Eagle, manufactured by McDonnell Douglas; French fighter Mirage 2000; English Harrier. It is possible to use less powerful and lighter training aircraft, such as the Russian MIG-AT or the French CAP from Mudry, as well as the use of outdated military aircraft.

 The complex, designed to host military games on military high-speed aircraft, is placed at a distance from civil aviation airports and outside existing air corridors, as well as at a distance from settlements.

 In another embodiment, the war game complex is designed to use small civilian aircraft with flight speeds of 100-300 km / h or helicopters and is equipped with the necessary short runway for such aircraft. Such a complex can have a compact airborne zone for flights, limited horizontally by the line of sight from the middle of the complex and vertically by a flight height of 200-300 m so that flights always go below the clouds. The advantages of this embodiment of the complex are the maximum entertainment of game air combat, the relatively low cost of flight time and the possibility of placing such complexes in urban recreation areas. In a compact version, the war game complex preferably contains several aircraft, for example, the Russian AN-24, AN-38, Aero Commander from Rockwell (USA), which can take part in a war game at the same time.

 The complex contains a conditional hit system for the target, which can simulate an airborne gun on planes 6 complex. The system is also suitable for installation on aircraft used in a war game that are not part of the complex, for example, belong to players or players' employers. Further, if necessary, references to planes that are not part of the complex, they are called guest aircraft.

 In FIG. 2 shows a conditional target engagement system, including a shot device 7 mounted on an attacking object and a target device 8 mounted on a target. The device 7 contains an optical sight 9 and an electric switch 10 simulating a trigger of the gun, which is pressed when the target is in the field of view of the optical sight 9. The device 7 also includes a photosensitive detector 11 installed at the focal point of the optical sight 9, a power supply 12, device 13 registration of hit in the target and the radio transmitting device 14. Pressing the switch 10 closes the electric circuit from the power supply 12 through the detector 11 to the device 13. The device 13 generates an electric aromatic signal to hit the target, if during closure of the switch 10 to the detector 11 through the optical sight 9 falls the radiation emanating from the target, the power of which is not less than the specified one. Additionally, for visual aiming, a regular sight of a military aircraft or other combat vehicle can be used, with the field of view of which the field of view of the optical sight 9 is combined.

 The device 8 contains a radiation source 15, providing radiation from the target, the radio receiving device 16 and the smoke generator 17. The signal from the device 11 is transmitted by the radio transmitting device 14 to the radio receiving device 16, which, in turn, starts the smoke generator 17, simulating the defeat of the target. The maximum range of conditional damage provided by the system can be controlled by changing the power of the radiation source 15 and changing the aperture of the optical sight 9.

 On each of the aircraft used in the war game, an attack device 7 and a target device 8 are installed so that the aircraft can serve as an attack target.

 Instead of or in addition to the conditional hit system for the target, to equip the complex, including aircraft 6, other known systems of this purpose or systems constructed by methods known to specialists, including combinations of known ones, can be used.

 The cockpits of civil aircraft can be converted to simulate the cockpit of a military aircraft. Some of the aircraft 6 have a pilot’s seat and a player’s place, equipped with controls for conditional destruction of the target.

 Aircraft 6 can be equipped with other means of conditional target destruction, including short-range air-to-air missiles, for example, AIM-9L Sidewinder, converted for conditional destruction of an air target. Re-equipment of missiles can be carried out according to a scheme known to specialists. For example, re-equipment of missiles includes removing the charge of the warhead and placing, in its place, for example, a radio transmitter for transmitting a detonation signal from the missile warhead undermining system to the attacked aircraft, on which a hit is recorded on board the aircraft. The system for undermining the warhead of a rocket should be adjusted to give a signal of detonation at a safe distance from the target, determined by the parameters of the rocket. In a converted rocket, the detonation signal is used to form a command to set the rudders of the rocket to one of the extreme positions in order to avoid the rocket colliding with the attacked aircraft.

 figure 3 illustrates the plan of the complex for a war game.

 At least on one aircraft 6, the system of conditional destruction of the target can be made with the possibility of control from the ground. In an advantageous embodiment, the control is carried out from the ground control point 18, which inside is given the appearance of an airplane cockpit, the glass of the cockpit at control point 18 is replaced by monitors to show the view from the cockpit of the airplane 6, on which the conditional hit system controlled from paragraph 18 is installed. The control point 18 and the aircraft 6 carrying the conditional target hitting system are equipped with known means of communication for transmitting from the aircraft 6 to the control point 18 images of the view from the aircraft cabin 6 and the sight field of view, as well as the signals of hits and sound from the aircraft’s cabin, and with paragraph 18 of the control signals corresponding to the moments of conditional shots.

 The complex contains ground-based means of conditional destruction of an air target: stationary anti-aircraft installations 19 and mobile anti-aircraft installations 20 installed on military vehicles or vehicles. To carry out attacks from the ground on airplanes participating in the war game, anti-aircraft installations 19 and 20 are equipped with the same systems for conditional target destruction as those installed on aircraft 6, or compatible with them, for example, devices 7, 8 shown in Fig. 2.

 On the territory of complex 1, areas 21 and 22 are separated from the airfield, each of which is assigned to one of the warring parties in a war game as territory belonging to this side. The boundaries of the regions 21, 22 are shown in FIG. 3 by dashed-dotted lines. If more than two opposing parties take part in a specific military game, then areas for each of them can be allocated on the territory of 1 complex.

 The complex also contains targets 23 located in areas 21, 22 for conventional air damage. The target 23 contains a device 8 (figure 2) or other means of recording a defeat that is compatible with at least one of the means of conditional destruction of the target, installed on aircraft 6 or guest aircraft. The target 23 in addition to the smoke generator 17 may also contain a pyrotechnic device for simulating an explosion that is triggered when it is conditionally hit in this target. Targets 23 may be given the appearance of various ground structures or military equipment.

 In one embodiment, regions 21, 22 are provided with camouflage means (not shown), for example camouflage nets, for covert placement of anti-aircraft installations 19, 20 and targets 23.

 According to one implementation option, at least part of the territory 1 of the complex is occupied by the water surface 24, for example, of the ocean or lake, within which water-based anti-aircraft installations 25 are located for air-sea combat. Anti-aircraft installations 25 are equipped with means of conventional destruction of an air target compatible with those installed on aircraft used in war games, for example, the devices 7, 8 described above. Anti-aircraft installations 25 can be installed either on a floating vehicle, including a submarine (underwater vehicle) ), or stationary on a platform fixed to the bottom. In particular, the entire territory of the complex can be located on the water, while the airfield can be located outside the complex on the shore, or an aircraft carrier adapted for war games can be used as an airfield.

 In one embodiment, the complex contains a range 26 for firing combat missiles, located in the 3 parts of the complex remote from the airfield. Moreover, the complex contains ground targets 27 and unmanned aerial targets 28, for example cruise missiles without warheads, as well as air-to-air and air-to-ground combat missiles, which are mounted on military aircraft or other aircraft used in the game carry war missiles.

 The complex is equipped with means of communication between the players and the control room 5.

 The arsenal of means of conducting a false battle, which can be equipped with a complex for military games, both installed on aircraft and land or water based, is not limited to the examples described above. The complex may additionally contain any other of the known types of military weapons, adapted for conditional destruction of targets, or imitation of these weapons, for example, devices that simulate air bombs, provided that they are used safely in a military game.

 The complex also includes equipment for filming a movie of a war game. In its simplest implementation, the complex contains conventional video cameras, for example, used for television shooting, as well as video cameras used on Formula 1 racing cars. Video cameras are also installed on airplanes of the 6th complex or are installed before the game on guest airplanes, which allows video shooting of players and the outer space behind the aircraft during the battle.

 In a preferred embodiment, the complex comprises a video studio 29, equipped with radio equipment for receiving and transmitting image signals, and all video points of a military game, including planes participating in a military game, are equipped with equipment for transmitting image signals to a video studio 29.

 Video points are additionally located on land vehicles 30 and aircraft 31, specially designed for video shooting of a military game, which can be moved through territory 1 and in the air zone 2 of the complex, respectively, for simultaneously shooting a battle picture from different angles.

 In a preferred embodiment, the complex also includes space communications equipment for receiving and transmitting images of the complex from an artificial Earth satellite and broadcasting a military game from a video studio.

 The complex contains 32 stands for spectators. The stands 32 are located near the airfield 3 and are oriented in such a way as to provide the audience with the best view of the war game.

 In addition, stands 33 are located on the territory of complex 1 with a view of the locations of targets 23 and anti-aircraft installations 19, 20, and also with a view of training ground 26. In order to ensure the safety of spectators in case of using air-to-air missiles in the game, the stands 33 are made form of shelters protected from above. The stands can also be located outside the complex, in any place accessible to the image signal transmitted from the complex.

 The war game complex is equipped with 32 television monitors 34 available for viewing from the stands to demonstrate to the audience the image of the war game obtained during the video shooting. The image is transmitted to monitors 34 from video studio 29.

 In one of the options for the implementation on the outer surfaces of the aircraft of the 6th complex and the internal surfaces of their cabins free of governing bodies, places are allocated for advertising images and inscriptions. In this version, the complex also contains advertising costumes for players.

 The complex may have points for accepting betting bets at which spectators can make money bets to win in a war game of any of the warring parties. The complex also contains electronic funds for accepting bets and paying winnings over a global computer network.

 Various ways of organizing and conducting a war game are possible.

 According to the invention, a war game simulates a battle using at least one aircraft, preferably an airplane.

 In one embodiment, the war game is played on a complex specially equipped for such a game, for example, on the complex described above. The war game is held for anyone who wants to participate in it individually or in teams. The participants of the game are provided for rent for a specified time, the territory 1 of the complex or its part and, accordingly, all or part of the air zone 2 (Fig. 1) above it. For a war game, participants rent planes 6 of the complex, equipped with means of conditional destruction of the target, or use guest planes, which are installed means of conditional destruction of the target, which the complex has.

 A participant in the game, at his request, may be provided with an aircraft, in particular an airplane, together with a professional pilot. This option is preferred when using military aircraft in the game. In this case, the aircraft contains a place for the pilot and a place for the player, which are equipped with controls for onboard means of conditional destruction of the target. The player in flight controls the means of conditional destruction of the target, while a professional pilot flies the plane.

 The player may be provided with an aircraft, for example, a military aircraft manned by a professional pilot, in which the means of conditional destruction of the target are made with the possibility of control from the ground. The player is in the ground control point 18, equipped in the form of an airplane cockpit, and controls the means for conditionally hitting the target of an aircraft in real flight. This option of participation in a war game can be used by players who do not want or cannot tolerate real flight conditions, for example, significant overloads. The design of the ground control point 18 in the form of an airplane cockpit with image transmission from the aircraft creates the player a sense of real combat conditions. To enhance this sensation, sounds from the cockpit of a flying aircraft are transmitted over the radio and are reproduced at the ground control point.

 Depending on the variant of the war game desired by the participants, the players are provided with a lease and other equipment available in the arsenal of the complex, in particular targets 23, ground-based anti-aircraft installations 19, 20 and / or water-based anti-aircraft installations 25, and also provide for the possibility of firing combat missiles on ground targets 27 and air targets 28 at range 26.

 Anti-aircraft mounts 19, 20, 25 can be controlled by both the players of the participating teams and the personnel of the complex. The latter allows you to organize a war game for one player.

 Participants competing in the game are assigned areas 21, 22 of territory 1 of the complex, respectively, with targets 23 and anti-aircraft mounts 19, 20 located in them. Participants are provided with distinctive symbols, which are marked by participants 21, 22 assigned to the participants, for example, using flags with the corresponding symbols , which is also applied to aircraft and other technical means used in a war game.

 The complex hosts film and / or video filming of a war game. On aircraft used in fake combat, video cameras are installed, with which during the game, video is taken of the space overboard and the player in the cockpit. Video cassettes of the game are provided to participants and spectators as a keepsake.

 The game is shown to viewers on the monitors of the 34 complex. To determine the winner, a judge from the staff of the complex or an external panel of judges may be involved.

 Participants choose an arsenal of tools that they will use in the game. Accordingly, the selected means provide participants with an approximate game regulation, which they can follow, or they can develop their own rules on its basis, which should include mandatory security restrictions. Such restrictions, in particular, include: the presence of officially established pilot qualifications for participants who wish to independently control the aircraft, observing the boundaries of the airborne zone of the complex, the minimum distance of approach of aircraft, the minimum flight height. The specific parameters of the restrictions are set depending on the type of aircraft and other military equipment.

 In a preferred embodiment, a war game is played between two warring parties, each of which is represented by one player or teams of players. The parties use one or more aircraft 6 in the game, equipped with conditional target destruction systems. All players are provided with means of communication for contact between themselves and the necessary services of the complex. It is also possible, as mentioned above, to simulate a battle for one player, as well as for two opposing players, each of whom, controlling the conditional hit system of the aircraft’s target, at the same time leads a team of employees of the complex managing the conditional hit systems of the ground and / or water based. To make contact between the player and the team of employees of the complex subordinate to him, a constant radio communication is established between them.

 Depending on the choice of participants and the equipment of the complex, the battle is carried out on small civilian aircraft or military aircraft. You can use other aircraft, such as helicopters.

 The implementation of one of the variants of a war game is illustrated by the example of a battle between two players below. Each player controls the means of conditional destruction of the target in the cockpit of the aircraft 6, piloted by a professional pilot. The first player is assigned area 21, the second - area 22. In each area there are two targets 23 and one anti-aircraft installation 20 - a conditional target destruction system, which is controlled by the personnel of the complex. The duration of the game is limited by time, for example, in one hour. In accordance with the regulations, each of the players must first hit the target, that is, the target 23 and anti-aircraft mount 20, located in the area assigned to the enemy. Aircraft with players take off from the airfield of the complex and attack targets 23 and anti-aircraft installations 20 in areas 21 and 22, respectively. The player who hit targets 23 and anti-aircraft installation 20, has the right to attack the plane 6 of another player. The rules of the game may include the accrual of points for hitting targets, including aircraft 6 of the enemy. The player who scores the most points is recognized as the winner.

 Obviously, the game, depending on the variety of equipment used in the complex, can be played according to much more complex scenarios, and many different variants of such scenarios are possible.

 One of the options for implementing the method of conducting a war game is an advertising campaign. Teams participating in the game represent, for example, competing manufacturers of goods and / or services or competing brands. Distinctive signs of manufacturers of goods / services, including their brand names, trademarks, are applied to the equipment used in the game, they mark the areas of the complex assigned to teams, etc. The game is broadcast on television, and also shown on the monitors of the complex for spectators present in the stands. It is possible to demonstrate the game on the global Internet.

 Another possible implementation of the method of conducting a war game is to conduct championships in a war game, including an international championship. The championship is held according to any of the well-known schemes for holding world championships, including qualifying competitions.

 The championship is held to establish personal and / or team championships. It is possible to conduct competitions on the territory of the above complex or at a military airfield using aircraft of the 6 complex or the organizers of the competition or guest aircraft, which are equipped with the specified means of conditional destruction of the target. The war game is held in accordance with the regulations approved by the organizers of the championship. In this case, the rules of the game described above and the means of conditionally hitting the target can be used.

 Since the proposed embodiment of the method of conducting a military game predominantly provides for the participation of professional pilots in it, then, accordingly, this determines the use of modern military equipment adapted for military game.

 There are various options for the implementation of personal and team competitions for world championship. According to one of the options for team championships, many teams are formed within the country, for example, from different territorial districts or different clubs, etc., which compete for the championship of the country, then regional or continental championships (European, African, American, Asian) and international are held championship.

 According to another embodiment of the method, the championship is held between the military personnel of the armies of different countries or regional associations. At the same time, both personal and team championships are also possible. The teams include military personnel of the military branches that are required by the regulations, including pilots and employees of the land and / or sea military branches.

 Mostly in a military game between state army teams, they use modern military aircraft equipped with means for conditionally hitting targets with specified characteristics. The stages of the championship are broadcast on radio and television channels, as well as on monitors for spectators in the stands of the complex. It is also possible to demonstrate the championship stages on the global Internet.

 Another option for implementing a military game in the form of a championship is competition between representatives from fictional armies, for example, representing manufacturers of goods and / or services. The purpose of such championships is an advertising campaign.

 In all the described options for organizing and conducting a military game, especially when conducting championships on a military game, a tote can be organized during the game. It is possible to hold a tote on the global Internet.

 Free areas of military equipment, including aircraft, the territory of the complex are leased for advertising.
