Integrated Fire Control System for Medium Anti-Armor Weapon Systems (MAAWS) (Army)
Abstract
The Aimpoint Fire Control System (FCS) consists of an integrated, eye-safe, 1550 nanometer Laser range finder, a ballistic computer with the capability to store up to 50 different ballistic algorithms, and a parallax free optical channel with unlimited eye relief. System automatically compensates for the ballistic drop of projectiles, propellant temperature and terrain angle. A MAAWS equipped with the Aimpoint FCS will provide the warfighter with an enhanced accurate/rapid engagement capability that significantly improves first round probability of hit (day/night) with less collateral damage and increased survivability/lethality due to improved suppression of enemy forces.
