Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2146175A2] The submunition unit (2a) has a charge part (6a) including a covering (7a). A casing (3a) accommodates a radar antenna (4a), an infrared sensor, a target-detecting sensor, a signal processing unit and the charge part. The signal processing unit is connected to the radar antenna and has a target recognition software. The target recognition software has a software interface for transferring of a specific parameter to a target area. A hardware interface (8a) e.g. universal serial businterface, is connected to the signal processing unit. The parameter is selected from a group consisting of a day/night parameter, temperature, clock time, terrain morphology and target category. An independent claim is also included for a method of destroying a target in a target area by a submunition unit.
