Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to an airburst simulation system and method. The airburst simulation system includes a laser emitting unit to emit laser beam to an airburst aiming position, preset above a target hidden behind an obstacle, such that a warhead is airbursted to shoot the target, a laser detecting unit mounted onto the target to detect an arrival of the laser beam above the target, and a determining unit to measure a distance between the airburst aiming position and an arrival position of the laser detected by the laser detecting unit, and determine whether or not the target has been shot based on the distance. This allows for a simulated engagement using an airburst apparatus, with no harm to human bodies by virtue of the use of laser.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An airburst simulation system comprising: a laser range finder emitting laser beam having an optic axis, the laser range finder configured to measure a distance up to a target; range varying buttons configured for adjusting a range; a laser emitting unit configured for receiving information of the range and emitting a laser beam to an airburst aiming position, preset above a target hidden behind an obstacle, such that a warhead is airbursted to shoot the…
