Se lätty lienee elektro-optinen tracking sensori, mikä jutussa mainitaan. Eli käytännössä tulenjohtosensori, jos oikein käsitin.
"The system, consisting of a Boxer 8x8 vehicle with an Mk4 turret equipped with a 35 mm Oerlikon Revolver Gun and an electro-optical (EO) tracking sensor, shot down a jet UAV by firing a 24-round burst of advanced hit efficiency and destruction (AHEAD) air burst munition on 18 September and another UAV of the same type with only three rounds on 19 September.
Rheinmetall Air Defence product manager Michael Gerber said placing the tracking sensor on the turret with the gun increases the precision of the system compared with aligning the two if they were separate. "
Varsinainen tutka ei ole vielä valmis.
"The test firings were conducted using only Skyranger’s tracking function as the search function will only be ready in two years’ time, according to Gerber. "
Jos EO-sensori on tuo lätty, niin mikä sitten on putken suojuksen päällä oleva härveli? Koon perusteella se näyttää massiiviselta pelkäksi lähtönopeustutkaksi.
