Abstract: A process for the simulation of weapons fire for gunner training, particularly for the gunners of armored vehicles. The process allows the exact evaluation of every shot, including its prehistory, permits the accurate determination of the location of a hit and allows a simple evaluation of the shot--even under field maneuver conditions. The process provides that every target emitting a characteristic radiation which is received by a television camera together with the image of the target and transmitted to a control center. The signal received further contain coded characteristics for the identification of the vehicles providing the target image, so that if the reticule is located on the target at the instant of firing, a score is detected and a smoke charge may be optionally ignited on the target by a coded radio command.
