Advanced Fire Control System
You are viewing an old version of this page.
To survive in a battle, a fighting vehicle must be capable of rapid reaction and accurate fire under all battle conditions. With an integrated system architecture and a well-designed operator interface, the ease, speed, and accuracy with which the operator can fire the gun can be improved. The AFCS project developed, demonstrated, and assessed improvements from exploiting selected technologies, and identified areas for further R&D. Technology from the project may be applied to future direct-fire vehicles, or to the mid-life upgrade of in-service vehicles. Development has also improved Automatic Target Detection & Tracking. The AFCS is in term linked with the sensor suite to provide additional strength to the SAS. The Structural Analyser System scans the target ships for defects and damage in its armour and hull. The system would then link to the AFCS and be able to fire say, 1 or 2 standard beams, or maybe link to any number of fire control systems, but only fire one per AFCS.
