Training simulator for firing shoulder-launched missiles

摘要

For training firers called on to undertake shoulder-launched missile firings, a simulator is proposed comprising a simulated launch tube (10) which carries a releasable front mass (12) and a releasable rear mass (14) at its ends. These masses are retained by electromagnets (34, 36). When the firer presses the trigger (18), the rear mass (14) is ejected to the left, followed, with a delay ( DELTA t), by the front mass (12). Thus the weight release and the elevation and azimuth movements felt by the firer during a real firing are reproduced. IMAGE
