Cockpit-Selectable Height-Of-Burst Sensor (C-HOBS)

Abstract

DSU-43/B Cockpit-selectable Height-Of-Burst Sensor (C-HOBS). The C-HOBS will be a replacement for the legacy DSU-33D/B proximity sensor. C-HOBS will replace the single factory height-of-burst setting with the addition of multiple height-of-burst options selectable via both manual switches and a cockpit interface. These selection options allow flexibility during flight to address a wide array of targets. The C-HOBS is intended to interface with the weapon via the cockpit and provide a cockpit-selectable proximity function for general and special purpose weapons (to include Next Generation Area Attack Weapons, NGAAWs).
