Telescopic sight
The present invention relates to a telescopic sight for a firearm for firing in a downward arc comprising: —a first movable mirror defining a first optical axis, the angle of said first movable mirror being adjustable so as to transmit, during use, the image of a target at an angle of 90°−α with respect to the axis of the barrel of the firearm, α being the desired angle of elevation for a given shot; —an objective lens, on the first optical axis; —a second mirror at 45° with respect to the first optical axis, defining a second optical axis that is parallel to the axis of the barrel of the firearm; —an ocular lens on the optical pathway defined by the mirrors projecting the image of the target to infinity.
Wearable Programming Unit for Deploying Air Burst Munition
A wearable programming unit (WPU) (1 10, 1 10a-1 10b) for assisting a user deploy air burst munition (ABM, 10) from a rifle (20) in an intuitive manner Is described. The WPU has a ballistic processor (112), wireless communication channels (120), a vibrator (130), a display (130), a mode button (150) and up/down select buttons (160, 161). After an ABM is selected and loaded into the rifle, and a deployment distance entered in the WPU, the ballistic processor calculates and outputs a time of burst T and barrel angle alpha. The barrel angle alpha is received by a sighting unit (104) and appears as a target marker. Once the rifle is tilted and/or moved so that a centre of the sighting unit coincides with the target marker, the WPU vibrates as a signal to the user to trigger the rifle.
Viewfinder with mobile red dot and illuminator
A viewfinder with a mobile red dot comprising a first stationary light source and a first reflective strip, the light source generating a first collimated light beam which is projected onto the reflective strip so as to materialize a red dot or grid visible for the shooter by the reflection on the reflective strip, the first beam being projected onto the reflective strip by means of a rotary mirror with adjustable angle of inclination relative to the first light beam.
