ABSTRACT:
Firing control system for a direct firing weapon mounted on a rotary-wing aircraft, which is designed to be actuated by the pilot himself and comprises an electronic computer, the said weapon being mounted for rotating about two transverse axes Y-Y' and Z-Z', due to driving means controlled by the said computer.
According to the invention, said firing control system is characterized in that it comprises a sighting system on which a target and an adjusting mark can appear simultaneously, which adjusting mark can be moved on the said sighting system by a control of the pilot, as well as means to determine the coordinates of the position of the said adjusting mark with respect to a system of axes tied to the aircraft and to transmit them to said electronic computer at least when the said adjusting mark is brought to a position on the said sight finder where it is superposed on the said target.
