Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0347968A1] Control device (2) suitable for application with a weapon system (3), e.g. a gun (14b), for generating control signals, e.g. aiming signals SPR for the gun, using target trajectory data Pd obtained with a sensor (1), e.g. a pulse radar apparatus (5). Additionally, the control device (2) additionally generates quality-factor representing signals, e.g. indicating a misdistance between a present predicted hitting point (TP) of a gun-fired projectile with the target and a present target position. For this purpose, the control device (2) stores during a certain time span in a memory 15 signals, such as hitting points TP and time of flight TTP, on the basis of which the aiming signals SPR are generated.
