Combat Vehicle Fire Control Systems - Coincidence

Abstract

This document describes the procedures for determining the coincidence window of a tank fire control system. The coincidence window is defined as the limits around exact sight/gun alignment within which the gun is permitted to fire (omitting the offsets imposed by a ballistic solution). Typically, a combat vehicle implements the coincidence windows based on the current alignment (static) and in some cases additionally the future alignment (dynamic) of the sight and gun. Procedures for determining coincidence window performance (with and without gunner input) against the tank's coincidence window and a standard test window of 0.3 mrad x 0.3 mrad are included.
