ABSTRACT:
An observation and guide beam apparatus, referred to as a spotter scope, has in addition to a laser guide beam generator an optical daytime channel for daytime spotting or viewing and a day- and nighttime channel for both night and day observations. These channels are harmonized relative to the laser guide beam by the same automatic axial harmonizing device. Further, the day and night channel includes a heat imaging device that is internally harmonized on a long term basis. The scope also has an ocular arm. This combination is especially suitable for use in a weapons system using remote controlled flying bodies, for example. The scope can use any available type of detector or detector technology.
