Abstract (en)
The method of guiding a missile (M) to its target (T) involves using an observation field (5) in which the missile is guided. A missile guidance zone (8) is defined to localize the laser guidance area. The illumination of the laser beam coincides with the guidance zone. An Independent claim is included for a guidance system using the above method.
Abstract (fr)
La présente invention concerne un procédé de guidage à balayage laser d'un missile (M) vers une cible (T), selon lequel on observe un champ (5), dans lequel est susceptible d'évoluer ledit missile (M), pour localiser ce dernier dans ledit champ (5), ainsi qu'un dispositif pour la mise en oeuvre dudit procédé. Selon l'invention, dans ledit champ (5), on détermine une zone (8) autour de la position instantanée dudit missile (M) ainsi localisé, et on effectue le balayage laser uniquement dans ladite zone (8). <IMAGE>
