How is the GPS Scene transfered to the GPSE?
|
Through a common moveable beam splitter
|
|
When is a round most affected by crosswind and why?
|
Primarily within the first 3 meters from the end of the gun tube when the forward portion of the projectile leaves the blast envelope and is subject to external wind forces, and the base of the projectile is still prtoected inside the envelope
|
|
What does the Crosswind Sensor do?
|
It determines crosswind at the vehicles position
|
|
What are the 3 types of Crosswind Sensors
|
Ion Stream
Hot Wire Vortex |
|
What is Cant?
|
Cant occurs when the tank is on uneven ground and one gun trunion is higher then the other.
|
|
What is a the Cant Unit?
|
A simple,rugged, pendulous device mounted on the turret ceiling forward of the CWS
|
|
The MRS is used to correct for the boresight loss caused by what 2 factors?

Thermal Bending and Gravitational Bending
|
|
Effective use of the LRF may be lost to what causes?
|
Internal LRF Failure
Vehicle Failure Man mad or Battle field obscurants Enviromental conditions Multiple returns when the Beam is larger then the target and has struck another obstacle. |
|
What is the reticle superimposed on?
|
The Dicroic Moveable Beam Splitter
|
|
When does symbology display flashing 0000s?
|
When all returns are less then 200 ms

|
6 to 8 hours
|
|
What is the purpose of the Ballistic Computer Subsystem?
|
Consistantly calculates and provides signasl to control the angle between the GPS reticle and the main gun.

|
What does the Ballistic Computer Subsystem angle consist of?
|
Ballistic Solutions, Lead Angle, Parallax Correction
|
|
What does the Lead Angle Consist of?
|
Distance to target, Ammunition type, tracking rate.
|
|
What is the transmitter reciever of the LRF?
|
The transmitter is a Erbium glass laser transmitter with a receiever using INGaAs semi-conductor
|
|
What component generates the GPSE Reticle?
|
LRF

|
What is the MRS?
|
Enables the crew to establish a reference point during boresighting, then check and correct for any change in the relationship between the GPS reticle and main gun.
|
|
