ABSTRACT:
In the combination of a daylight aiming device, a night aiming device and a guiding device for tracer missiles emitting infrared beams of a narrow spectral band both the night aiming device and the guiding device work on infrared beams of the same spectral region. This region includes the narrow spectral band of the beams emitted by the missile. Partially transmitting mirror means are arranged along the optical axis of the night aiming device for filtering the missile beams of the narrow spectral band out of the beam bundle and reflecting them to the guiding device, which conducts flight path control signals to the missile. The remaining beams of the spectral region are transmitted to the aiming device. An infrared/visible-light image converter is part of the aiming device. The visible light rays emitted by the converter are reflected into the ocular lens of the aiming device for viewing by the operator.
