Fire Control Apparatus for a Laser Weapon.
Abstract
The present invention utilizes a laser weapon fire control apparatus which controls a laser weapon to enhance the survivability of the systems which are being defended by the laser weapon. The fire control apparatus responds in real time to the escort/threat scenario which confronts the weapon. The laser weapon fire control apparatus yields a weapon pointing sequence and controls the laser weapon on-off times. It is one object of the present invention, therefore, to provide an improved laser weapon fire control apparatus by shifting a large part of the computational burden to the early part of the engagement where real time constraints are not as stringent.
