SubscribeAir Target is a well known scoring specialist since 1956.
Our acoustical scoring products have been delivered to customers in more than 30 countries all over the world.
Acoustical scoring is a method to measure the miss distance between a supersonic projectile or missile and a target. The range of products include: the Mini Marque and Marque scoring stations, Miss Distance Indicators (MDI), uplink command units, sleeve targets, and winches.
TRAIN MORE EFFICIENTLY AND SAVE MONEY
New scoring stations and MDIs make firing training more flexible and more realistic which is important in modern firing training.
Acoustical scoring system layout.
By making use of this technology you can save money by reducing ammunition consumption and training time whilst allowing gunners and the weapon system operators get more efficient training.
CALCULATING PROJECTILE MISS DISTANCE
The shock wave generated by a passing supersonic projectile or missile is detected by an array of pressure sensitive sensors installed on or close to the target.
Ground based Scoring Station for calculation and presentation of real time firing results from up to six targets simultaneously. Windows NT based software with an SQL-7 database.
The amplitude and the time differences between the different sensors are used to calculate the shortest distance between the target and the projectile (the miss distance), and in what angular position the projectile passed.
The scoring data are presented in real time on a colour graphic computer display. Data transmission between sensors and display is via a radio link.
GUNNERY TRAINING WITH ACOUSTICAL SCORING
Scoring gives the gunner and the weapon system operator real time information in the virtual "scoring board". This information gives a picture of each round "hitting" the "scoring board". The angular position of the score as well as a score too far off can immediately guide the gunner to improve his direction of fire. The improved results can be verified as they appear on the "scoring board".
Handy portable Scoring Station for calculation and presentation of real time firing results from up to six targets simultaneously. Ground based or for installation in the towing aircraft. Windows NT based software with an SQL-7 database.
FIRING SITUATIONS
Acoustical scoring is useful for calibers from 5.56 to 5" and above and missiles (rounds need to be supersonic in the target area). Acoustical scoring can be used for all firing situations i.e. AIR to AIR, AIR to GROUND, GROUND to AIR, GROUND to GROUND, and the corresponding naval applications.
SCORING STATIONS
Mini Marque and Marque scoring stations are used for the collection, calculation, and presentation of real time firing results from up to six targets simultaneously.
The new scoring stations Marque and Mini Marque can receive scoring data from up to six targets (MDIs) simultaneously. The software is based on Windows NT including a SQL-7 data base. Features include: Up to 40 m scoring range; Up to 6000 rounds/minute.
12-sector universal sleeve target MDI. The universal type allows firing from any direction. Battery powered with a capacity of 6 hours operation. Telemetry frequency in the 400 – 470 MHz band.
MISS DISTANCE INDICATORS (MDIs)
Zone, 4- and 12-sector models as well as vector models are available for all type of targets and UAVs.
The universal 12 sector MDI gives the possibility to fire at a target (MDI) coming from any direction. The target towing operator/UAV operator can offer any target courses during the same mission.
UPLINK COMMAND UNIT
This is used to remotely change the MDI frequency and sensitivity.
Other equipment includes test equipment to test the complete scoring system, sleeve targets, which are soft targets for various applications (radar, laser), and inboard target towing winches.
12-sector universal MDI for stiff targets and/or UAVs. Same performance as for AS-131/12U.
