ABSTRACT:
Electric circuitry for fuze mode selection and safe and arm function in an nti-ship guided missile is disclosed. Circuitry provides optional proximity fuze selection, and automatic proximity fuze lockout in case of direct target impact. Target proximity encounter results in instantaneous warhead detonation while direct target impact results in delayed warhead detonation to provide time for target penetration.
