Abstract

Vorgeschlagen wird ein Feuerleitgerät (1) für eine Handfeuerwaffe (100) geeignet für Tagund Nachteinsatz, insbesondere für großkalibrige und langsam fliegende Munition bzw. Geschosse für kurze und mittlere Reichweiten, wie zum Beispiel 40 mm Granatwerfer und Panzerfäuste / Bunkerfäuste und ähnliche Waffen. Das Feuerleitgerät (1) dient zudem zur Ermittlung und automatischen Einstellung des Aufsatzwinkels zur Anpassung der Ballistik und des Seitenwinkels zur Drallkorrektur für Handfeuerwaffen mit relativ großem Aufsatzwinkel. Dazu ist das Feuerleitgerät (1) an der Waffe (100) derart angebracht, dass es automatisch oder per Hand zur Waffenachse verschwenkt bzw. gedreht werden kann und das Verdrehen dabei abhängig von einem erforderlichen Aufsatzwinkel der Waffe (100) ist, sodass eine direkte Sicht des Bedieners zum Ziel erhalten bleibt. Vorgesehen ist ein Verschwenken von bis zu 90°. Für die Drallkorrektur wird beispielsweise ein definierter Winkel in horizontaler Ausrichtung zwischen den Achsen des Feuerleitgerätes (1) und der Waffe (100) eingestellt. Alternativ ist das Feuerleitgerät (1) senkrecht montiert und eine erforderliche Verkantung wird dann im Display (3) angezeigt, die dann eingestellt werden muss.

Proposed is a fire control device (1) for a handgun (100) suitable for day and night use, in particular for large caliber and slow-flying ammunition or projectiles for short and medium ranges, such as 40 mm grenade launcher and bazookas / bunker fists and similar weapons. The fire control device (1) also serves to determine and automatically adjust the attachment angle to adjust the ballistics and the side angle for swirl correction for handguns with a relatively large angle of attachment. For this purpose, the fire control device (1) on the weapon (100) is mounted so that it can be pivoted or rotated automatically or manually to the weapon axis and twisting depends on a required attachment angle of the weapon (100), so a direct view the operator to the destination is maintained. Provided is a pivoting of up to 90 °. For the twist correction, for example, a defined angle in horizontal alignment between the axes of the fire control device (1) and the weapon (100) is set. Alternatively, the fire control unit (1) is mounted vertically and a required tilting is then displayed in the display (3), which then has to be set.
