Description

The invention relates to military equipment and can find application in the design of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, as well as in stationary armored vehicles.

The Ural tank armament complex is known (1), which is armed with a smoothbore gun stabilized in two guidance planes, the PKT machine gun coaxial with it, and the NSV-12.7 anti-aircraft machine gun.

Observation of the battlefield, determining the distance to targets and firing a cannon and a machine gun coaxial with it is carried out using a rangefinder sight, which has independent stabilization of the field of view in the vertical plane.

Shooting from a cannon from closed firing positions is carried out using a lateral level and an azimuth indicator.

For firing at night from a cannon and coaxial machine gun, a night sight is installed on the tank. Shooting from an anti-aircraft machine gun at air and ground targets is provided by an anti-aircraft sight.

The disadvantages of the weapons complex are:

1. The tank commander does not have a circular view of the terrain, since the observation devices provide a view from a certain angle.

2. The inability to automatically introduce wind corrections into the fire control system.

3. Low reliability of the anti-aircraft installation when dusting.

A known weapon system of an armored object (2), which according to the authors is the closest technical solution to the claimed object and is selected as a prototype.

The armament complex of the armored object consists of the main weapon installed in the armored turret with the possibility of pointing it in a vertical plane, and a grenade launcher placed on the tower of the combat vehicle. The grenade launcher is mounted on a carriage equipped with a flange, by means of which it is mounted on the roof platform of the armored turret with the possibility of adjustable rotation about the vertical axis. To guide the main weapon and grenade launcher into the target and firing, in the armament complex there are sights of the main and additional weapons.

The disadvantages of the armament complex of the armored object are the same disadvantages as the armament complex of the Ural tank.

The objective of the invention is to increase the accuracy and operational characteristics of the weapons complex, as well as improving the reliability of the grenade launcher in dusty conditions.

The problem is solved by the fact that in the armament complex of the armored object containing the main weapon installed in the armored turret, a grenade launcher placed outside the turret with the ability to rotate in a vertical plane, and the gunner’s and commander’s sights, a panoramic commander’s sight and a wind sensor mounted on the turret are additionally introduced. The grenade launcher is closed by a casing, on the receiving window of which a neck is fixed pivotally connected to the grenade launcher magazine. A cylindrical pipe is installed in front of the casing.

The introduction of a panoramic sight to the weapon system provides a circular overview of the terrain by the commander and the ability to conduct targeted fire from each type of weapon. The installation of a wind sensor provides automatic input of corrections for the direction and speed of the wind into the fire control system of the weapon complex. Placing the grenade launcher inside the casing and attaching the neck cover pivotally connected to the grenade launcher casing on the receiving ram, increase the reliability of the grenade launcher in dusty conditions. Installing a cylindrical nozzle in the front of the casing increases the accuracy characteristics of the grenade launcher and reduces the amount of dust entering the grenade launcher barrel.

The present invention is illustrated in graphic materials, where in Fig.1 shows a side view of the armament complex of the armored object, in Fig.2 is a top view.

The armament complex of the armored object consists of the main weapon 1 installed in the armored turret 2. In the aft of the turret 2 there is a grenade launcher closed by a casing 3. The grenade launcher with a casing 3 has the ability to rotate in a vertical plane. A gunner’s sight 4 and a backup commander’s sight 5 are installed on tower 2. A panoramic sight 6 is placed on the bracket welded to the tower behind the commander’s hatch 6. On the left, the wind sensor is fixed on the tower 7. On the receiving window of the casing 3 there is a grenade launcher through which a belt with grenades from the magazine 8 is fed in, the neck 9 is fixed. The left side of the neck 9 follows the shape of the receiving window of the casing, and the right side is cylindrical and pivotally connected to the pipe 10 of the magazine 8. The axis of rotation of the grenade launcher coincides with the axis of the pipe 10, and the receiving window of the casing 3 not How many displaced ago. The profile of the receiving window of the casing 3 repeats the outline of the grenade with the link with the provision of gaps for the smooth entry of the grenade with the link into the receiving window of the grenade launcher. To improve the balance of the grenade launcher, the axis of its rotation coincides with the center of mass of the grenade launcher and the casing. In the front part of the casing, a cylindrical pipe 11 is installed, the inner diameter of which exceeds the caliber of the grenade. Panoramic sight 5 provides a circular overview of the terrain to the commander, and also allows him to conduct targeted fire from the main weapon 1 and from a grenade launcher. To increase the accuracy of firing of the weapons complex, a wind sensor 7 was introduced into the fire control system, which converts the lateral component of the wind speed into an electrical signal supplied to the ballistic computer.

To increase the reliability of the grenade launcher in dusty conditions, a casing 3 is used. Docking of the movable casing 3 with the stationary magazine 8 is done by the neck 9, which prevents dust from entering the automatics of the grenade launcher.

The cylindrical nozzle 11 improves the accuracy of the grenade launcher, as it protects the grenade from external factors in the initial portion of the trajectory. In addition, the pipe 11 reduces the likelihood of dust and sand getting into the barrel of the grenade launcher. Dust and sand, which penetrate the inner surface of the nozzle, settle on its walls. When fired, a stream of gases, dust and sand are thrown out.

Thus, the proposed technical solution allowed to increase the accuracy and operational characteristics of the weapons complex, as well as the reliability of the grenade launcher in dusty conditions.
