Description

The invention relates to educational and training facilities and can be used to train operators of anti-tank missile systems (ATGMs), as well as their combat coordination during work in the unit.

A known simulator for training operators of guided weapons, containing a launcher simulator, series-connected information and control and control display units, operator head phones, a dimensional housing, a support, a vertical guidance brake device The optical output of the sighting channel of the launcher simulator is directed to the information display unit and the audio output of the swivel simulator is connected to the head phones of the operator. The signal output of the swivel operator is connected to the input-output information of the control and monitoring unit, the audio output of which is connected to the input of the launcher simulator [Certificate for Utility Model No. 10920 "Simulator for Training Operators of Guided Arms"].

The disadvantages of this simulator is the lack of display quality of the visual environment information generated on the monitor of the display unit, which reduces the training capabilities of the simulator. The simulator does not allow combat coordination of operators when working as part of a unit or firing at the same target from two remote launchers (VPU) at the same time.

A known simulator for training operators of guided weapons, containing a simulator of a launcher, a control unit, control and display of information, functionally interconnected [RF Patent No. 20685, "Simulator for training operators of guided weapons"].

The simulator allows the operator to train in practical skills in preparing and firing in a training class. A disadvantage of the known simulator is that the target immediately falls into the field of view of the target channel, that is, there is no target search mode, while the distance between the operator’s work table and the display unit is rigidly fixed, the simulator also does not allow combat coordination of operators when working as part of a unit or shooting at one target from two VPU at the same time.

The authors were faced with the task of creating a classroom simulator for training operators in the basic skills of the combat use of anti-tank systems based on VPU, as well as for combat coordination of operators when working as part of a unit.

The technical problem was solved due to the fact that multimedia equipment was added to a well-known simulator containing a simulator of a remote launcher of the complex, a learning control unit, and a power supply to simulate the viewing field of view of the phono-target environment and the instructor’s workstation containing a base and hardware -program complex connected to multimedia equipment, while the instructor's workplace is connected to the second-level information and control line with remote start simulators th installation of the complex. A microdisplay indicator can be added to the remote launcher of the complex to simulate the sighting channel and a computer, which is connected to the instructor's workplace by a second-level information and control line, and a bi-directional bus to the controls and launchers of the remote launcher.

In the simulator of the remote launcher, a guidance mechanism for the launch tube in azimuth can be additionally introduced.

Personal electronic computers of the instructor's hardware-software complex can be connected by first-level information and control lines via a local area network switch to an uninterruptible power supply.

The invention is illustrated using the drawings, where:

in FIG. 1 is a structural diagram;

in FIG. 2 - simulator VPU;

in FIG. 3 - the workplace of the instructor.

The simulator contains two simulators 1 and 2 VPU, a workplace of 5 instructors (RMI), multimedia equipment for simulating the viewing field of view of the background-target environment (FSO), consisting of two video projectors 3 with projection screens 4. The workplace of the instructor 5 is connected to multimedia equipment and it contains a hardware-software complex (AIC) 6 of the instructor, base 7, on which the keyboard 8, coordinate-pointing device 9, and video monitor 10 of the RMI are located, while the instructor’s workstation is connected to the information-control magician second level 11 with simulators of a remote launcher complex 1.2.

The VPU simulator contains a VPU 19 computer, a sighting channel simulator, which uses a microdisplay indicator 17 connected to a computer video adapter 21, control devices of the VPU 18 simulator, connected by a bi-directional bus 20 with an adapter 19 for digital input-output of a computer 19, and a second-level information and control highway 11 connecting the computer 16 of the agro-industrial complex and the network card 23 of the computer 19 VPU through the local area network switch 15.

The instructor’s AIC 6 contains a computer 16, a local area network switch 15, an uninterruptible power supply 14, a power supply 13, a first-level information and control line 12 connecting network cards 23 of a computer 16 with a switch 15, video adapters 21, one of which is connected to a video monitor 10 and the second one with video projectors 3, port 24 PS / 2, connected to the keyboard 8 and the pointing device 9. The computers 16 of the agro-industrial complex 6 of the instructor are connected by information-control highways 12 of the first level through a local computing switch and 15 with the uninterruptible power supply 14.

In the simulator of the remote launcher of a classroom simulator, an additional guidance mechanism for the launch tube in azimuth can be additionally introduced.

Classroom simulator, taking into account the above description, works as follows.

At RMI 5, the instructor enters information about the trainees into the server database (one of the computers 16), enters the necessary cartographic information, and selects the operating mode of the simulator.

In theoretical training mode, the instructor selects the appropriate section of automated training courses (AOK) stored in the server database. The information in the corresponding section of the AOK is transmitted to the video projector (or video projectors) and displayed on the projection screen (s). The change of information is controlled using the keyboard 8 of the base 7.

In the evaluation mode of the obtained theoretical knowledge, on the screens of a video monitor 10 RMI, the text displays questions and several answers to each (one of which is correct). Students using the 8 RMI keyboard choose the correct answer. The corresponding software evaluates the results of the polls and enters them into a database on the server.

In the mode of preparation of training tasks (UTZ), the instructor prepares the training tasks of a flexible scenario, taking into account the entered cartographic information.

When teaching operators the basic skills of combat work and firing ATGMs (UR) from VPU (or training when training operators to maintain and improve already acquired skills), the instructor selects the appropriate training task (UTZ) and starts it with RMI 5. In accordance with the selected task, the computers 16 of the agro-industrial complex 6 form a survey federal center, which is displayed using the video projector 3 on the projection screens 4. Information about the selected task is received via the information-control highway of the second level 11 and computer 19 TLU 1,2 which in turn are formed into the field of view of the operator (on the microdisplay screen) in the corresponding term FTSO field of view of the sighting channel.

Depending on the voice command arriving at the headsets of the operators (formed when creating the UTZ), the operators produce (according to the image of the federal center on the projection screens 3 and 4) rough guidance of the VPU launch pipe in azimuth to the target (each in its own or one at a time), then through the sighting channel with the help of the guidance organs of the VPU 1.2, they aim (by elevation and azimuth) an aim mark on the target, “shoot” and “hold” the aim mark on the target until it is “defeated”.

Current information about the state of the controls VPU 1,2 through a bi-directional bus 20 enters the computer 19 VPU. The exchange of information between simulators VPU 1,2 and AIC 6 RMI 5 is carried out along the information-computing highways of the second level, and the exchange of information between the computers of the AIC 16 instructors is carried out along the information-computing highways 12 of the first level.

Control over the progress of the UTZ is carried out using a video monitor 10 (working with the control bodies of the VPU) RMI 5 and projection screens that show the launch, flight of ATGMs and hitting a target or cutting ATGMs into the ground, etc. The results of the UTZ are processed in the agricultural sector 6 RMI 5 and entered into the database of students.

Thus, a classroom simulator allows training operators to learn the basic skills of the combat use of anti-tank systems based on VPU, and also to use it for combat coordination of operators when working as part of a unit.

The applicant company has developed design documentation of the invention.
