ABSTRACT:
A missile aiming sight for use in a man-portable missile launching system which includes an adaptor section for connection between a conventional grip-stock and missile launching tube. The aiming sight monitors the electrical communication between the launching tube and grip-stock in order to drive a pair of sighting reticles. The reticles are positioned in the image plane of a telescopic viewing system for providing a visual indication by the intersection of the reticles as to the point of regard of the missile. A separate visual indicator is positioned at the center of the image plane to indicate that the missile electronics has locked on to a target. Additional indication is provided in the image plane to indicate out-of-tolerance and other sighting conditions to alert the operator to restart the missile firing process.
