A MILITARY VEHICLE COMPRISING AN AIMING DEVICE AND AN AIMING OPERATION ARRANGEMENT FOR A VEHICLE OPERATOR
The present invention relates to a military vehicle (V). Said military vehicle comprises an aiming device (D) and an aiming operation arrangement (A) for a vehicle operator (O) to operate the aiming device (D). Said aiming operation arrangement (A) comprises a support device (40) for providing support for the operator (O) when operating the aiming device (D). The support device (40) comprises one or more fixation devices (44A, 44B, 44C, 44D) operable between a non-fixated state and fixated state, said one or more fixation devices (44A, 44B, 44C, 44D) being configured to, in the fixated state, provide fixation of one or more body parts of the vehicle operator (O) so as to reduce influence of vehicle movement during aiming operation.
Chargeable gunsight bracket and gunsight having the same
A chargeable gunsight bracket and a gunsight having the same are provided. The gunsight bracket includes a bracket body, a chargeable battery, and a power supply circuit board electrically connected to the chargeable battery. A bottom of the bracket body is provided with a groove, and the bracket body is further provided with a battery holder and a charging interface. The power supply circuit board and the chargeable battery are both mounted in the battery holder, two ends of the charging interface are respectively connected to the power supply circuit board and external environment. The chargeable gunsight bracket is fixedly mounted on a gun through the groove, and the chargeable battery is mounted in the battery holder. When power of the chargeable bracket is running out, the external power supply can directly charge the chargeable battery through the charging interface, so that the gunsight can be used continuously.
TRACKED BULLET CORRECTION
Systems, devices, and methods for determining a time of flight (TOF) of a first bullet fired from a gun to pass a target plane of a target; determining a location of an aimpoint on the target in an imager field of view (FOV) relative to a disturbed reticle at a time the first bullet is fired by the gun; determining a location of the first bullet relative to the location of the aimpoint on the target at the TOF in the imager FOV; and determining an updated location of the disturbed reticle based on a difference between the location of the first bullet and the location of the aimpoint on the target at the time the first bullet crosses the target plane and a difference between the location of the disturbed reticle and the location of the aimpoint on the target at the time the first bullet was fired.
HEADWEAR MOUNTABLE FIREARM MIRROR ACCESSORY
A headwear associated firearm accessory has a mirror integral with a mirror support mounted on a rotatable platform having an attachment device attaching the mirror support to the rotatable platform. One option has a rail mount moveably attached to the rotatable platform. Also, a knob is attached to the rotatable platform opposite an attachment point of the mirror support. There is a digital engagement device in the mirror support or in the rotatable platform. This digital engagement device is typically a spring activated ball assembly mounted within a cavity in the rotatable platform. Finally, one embodiment has an arm moveably attached to the rotatable platform also having a grip attached to the arm. A foldable firearm accessory has a rotation base integrally associated with a mirror and further attached to a rotational mount associated with a folding actuator. Spring activated balls provide rotational selection for various positions.
Non-Lethal Probe for Target Control
New targeting systems, hardware and techniques are provided, in which an auxiliary probe is first launched and deployed at a target. Extremely precise, deliberate targeting for future projectiles, weapons or non-lethal measures is then made relative to the position and orientation of the probe. In one embodiment, a system enables a sniper to plan measures with extreme precision within an environment, evaluate their effectiveness, and execute them extremely rapidly once satisfied. A user may create, set, adjust and execute Impact Point indicators, corresponding with projected points of impact of a projectile on a target subject within a target environment. The system may counteract and otherwise adjust for certain ballistic and environmental factors in a firing mechanism to maintain such an Impact Point fire ready, in real time. Yet the system is unobtrusive, allowing the user to engage ordinary targeting activity.

ROTATIONALLY DEPLOYED NON-BLOCKING FIREARM MIRROR ACCESSORY
A firearm accessory is rotatable on two axes through the use of a sleeve mounted on a bearing comprising of a first part and a second part the second part being rotatable and coupled to the first part facilitating a central opening and a first rotational motion and protrusions with at least one hinge from the sleeve attaching to a mirror device acting as a second rotational motion. An alternative teaches digital control of a swinging mirror assembly having spring acting ball actuators providing the digital action between the actuators and a surface. In another alternative, two armatures also are taught that connect a reflective device to a bearing mounted sleeve in front of or behind a target viewing device. Any of these may be directly rail mounted with appropriate attachment devices or directly connected to or manufactured as an integral part of a reflex sight, night vision, scope or similar viewing system of a firearm.
ROTATIONALLY DEPLOYED FOLDING FIREARM ACCESSORY
A firearm accessory has a foldable mirror housing that is attached through a hinge with a rotatable mirror platform. This rotatable mirror platform sits atop a bearing platform that in turn is integral with a rail mount. The rotatable mirror platform has a locking device that engages the fascia of the bearing platform popping mirror into positions or angles of most common use. A knob has a housing therefore having an associated friction disk and axle. A locking device on the mirror housing engages the exterior surface of the back of the knob housing for positions of most common vertical angles of use. Finally, a spring actuated sliding mirror is an optional feature as it is mounted on a mounting plate therefore allowing for height adjustment of mirror as well as the interchanging of mirror types.
Human Transported Weapon with Plurality of Types of Munitions an a Decision Subsystem with Aim Adjustment
A human transported weapon system is comprised of an automated targeting subsystem, a sensing subsystem, munitions storage, munitions logic, sensor logic, target logic, and, munitions logic, a decision subsystem, trigger activation logic, aim adjustment logic; and a firing subsystem. The automated targeting subsystem identifies and provides for selection of a selected target in a field of view of the human transported weapon system. The sensing subsystem tracking location of the available targets in the field of view of the human transported weapon system. The munitions storage provides storage of up to a plurality of types of munitions and having at least one of the types of munitions available to select from. The munitions logic determines which of the types of munition is available. The sensor logic gathers target data from sensors, recognizing type of target from analyzing the target data. The target logic chooses a selected target based on the types of munitions available. The munitions logic chooses a selected munition from the types of munitions available based on the selected target. The decision subsystem locates where target is at a firing time responsive to the sensor logic. The trigger activation logic fires the selected munition at a firing time.
