激光測距儀和瞄準器的全球市場Global Laser Range Finder and Designator Market |
過去十年,當今戰場上激光輔助威脅的數量和種類呈指數級增長。 這些系統利用激光來增加武器擊中並殺死目標的可能性。 這些激光器分為三種類型:激光測距儀 (LRF)、激光瞄準器 (LTD) 和光束駕馭導彈 (LBR)。
在戰術範圍內,激光器發射寬度小於 1 米(2-3 公裡)的標準可配置和可調光束。 這些光束可以在十分之一秒內打開和關閉。 這允許光束編碼。 激光器由於其緊湊的尺寸和光點的編碼識別而可用作目標標記和瞄準器。 這些激光器可以引導尋的導彈、砲彈、近距離空中支援飛機等,並將其瞄準遠程目標。 快速切換操作還允許激光束用於土地測量儀器和測距儀的距離測量。 激光器是優秀的測距儀。 在十億分之一秒內,激光打開和關閉,產生非常短的脈衝。
脈衝被發送到目標,目標反射一些光。 脈衝的往返時間由測距儀中的計時器測量。 然後時間被轉換為到目標的距離。 光束快速打開和關閉,讓您可以對脈衝計時。 該定時可用於對激光束進行編碼,以便探測器僅檢測到來自該光束的發射。 精確的光束可以在遠處的目標上形成非常小的光點。 通過在砲彈、導彈和炸彈上安裝小型探測器,他們可以鎖定一個編碼光點並忽略所有其他光點。
激光瞄準器與測距儀一樣,作為世界各地軍隊的標準裝備越來越普遍。 激光瞄準器主要用於指定彈丸的目標,然後使用激光輔助彈丸到達預定目標。 瞄準具具有多個脈衝,可以進行編碼以提高相關武器的準確性。 這種技術通常要等到彈丸落地後才會使用。
激光制導武器的日益普及是推動市場增長的主要市場趨勢之一。 軍方正在更新艦船、直升機和陸地車輛上的激光瞄準系統,以滿足新時代武器系統的要求。
目前對輕型激光瞄準器的需求正在上升。 緊湊型激光瞄準/測距儀是一種具有激光瞄準功能的便攜式目標獲取設備。 兩個主要組件是目標採集模塊和激光瞄準模塊。 它還配備熱像儀和日間攝像機、激光瞄準器點成像儀、電子顯示屏、人眼安全激光測距儀、數字磁羅盤、SAASM GPS(選擇性可用性/反欺騙模塊 GPS)和數字導出。 這是影響市場增長的主要市場趨勢之一。
不斷增長的國防支出推動了新採購活動的市場,並利用更新的技術和功能更新現有平台。 國防支出的增加將推動新型激光測距儀和瞄準器的採購,以整合到地面部隊和無人平台、船舶和飛機中。 歐洲和亞太地區的地緣政治局勢也支持採購。

美國陸軍航空專家需要為其 AH-64 阿帕奇突擊直升機配備額外的光電瞄准設備。 該解決方案來自洛克希德·馬丁公司位於佛羅裡達州奧蘭多的導彈和火控部門。 阿拉巴馬州紅石兵工廠陸軍合同司令部官員宣布,洛克希德·馬丁公司已獲得一份價值 9580 萬美元的 Arrowhead M-TADS/PNVS(先進目標捕獲和瞄準系統/飛行員夜視傳感器)系統合同。 M-TADS/PNVS 為阿帕奇直升機飛行員提供遠程、高精度的交戰和機動能力,以實現任務目標並確保無論白天還是夜晚、在所有天氣條件下的飛行安全。 M-TADS/PNVS 分為各種子組件。
瞄準系統包括日/夜光電傳感器,安裝在下部 M-TADS 砲塔中。 Arrowhead 目標捕獲傳感器套件結合了 TADS 和 PNVS 的 FLIR(前向紅外)部分,可利用當前技術提供精確的交戰能力,確保陸軍的 Aoache 直升機在未來很長一段時間內仍將是成功的攻擊直升機。我們保證。 該系統的激光測距儀和瞄準器包括人眼安全測距儀和日間傳感器電子單元,取代了阿帕奇過去日間傳感器組件中的激光接收器單元和配套電子設備。
The number and variety of laser-assisted threats on today's battlefield have grown tremendously during the last decade. These systems employ a laser to boost the likelihood of a weapon hitting and killing its target. These lasers are classified into three types: Laser Range Finders (LRF), Laser Target Designators (LTD), and Beam rider Missiles (LBR).
At tactical ranges, lasers emit light beams that can be controlled and focused to a width of less than a meter (2-3 km). These beams can be made to turn on and off in fractions of a second. This enables the coding of the beams. Lasers are helpful as a target marker or designator due to their compact size and coded identification of the light spot. These lasers may guide homing missiles or shells, as well as close air support aircraft, to engage a target at vast distances. The quick switching operation also enables the laser light to be used to measure distances in land surveying equipment and rangefinders. Lasers are excellent range finders. In a few billionths of a second, the laser beam is turned on and off, producing a very brief pulse.
The pulse is sent to the target, which reflects some of the light. The round trip time of the pulse is measured by a timer inside the rangefinder. After then, time is transformed into a distance to the target. The pulses can be timed due to the quick switching of the beam on and off. Timing can be utilized to code the laser beam so that only the spot from that beam is detected by a sensing device. The accurate beam enables the formation of a very small light spot on a faraway target. A tiny detector can be put into an artillery shell, guided missile, or bomb, allowing it to lock on to a single coded light spot while ignoring all others.
Laser designators, like range finders, have become increasingly common as standard equipment in the world's armed forces. Laser designators are primarily used to designate a target for a projectile, after which the laser is employed to assist the projectile in homing in on its intended target. Designators have several pulses and can be encoded to improve accuracy with their associated weapons. Typically, the technique is not used until the projectile is near to hitting the ground.
The increasing proliferation of laser-guided weapons will be one of the key market trends that will drive market growth. Armed forces are upgrading the laser targeting systems onboard ships, helicopters, and land vehicles to meet the requirements of new-age weapon systems.
Lightweight laser designators are increasing in demand. Lightweight Laser Designator Rangefinders are portable target locators with laser designation. The Target Locator Module and the Laser Designator Module are the main components. It has a thermal imager, day camera, laser designator spot imaging, electronic display, eye-safe laser rangefinder, digital magnetic compass, Selective Availability/Anti-Spoofing Module GPS (SAASM GPS), and digital export capability. This is one of the key market trends that will influence the growth of the market.
Increasing defense spending will drive the market for new procurement activities and upgrades to existing platforms with newer technologies and capabilities. The increase in defense spending will encourage the procurement of new laser range finders and designators for land forces and also for integration into unmanned platforms, ships, and aircraft. Procurement will also be driven by prevailing geo-political conditions in Europe and the Asia Pacific.

Additional electro-optical targeting devices for the AH-64 Apache assault helicopter were required by US Army aviation experts. Their solution came from the Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control section in Orlando, Fla. Officials from the Army Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal, Ala., announced a $95.8 million contract to Lockheed Martin for the Arrowhead Modernized Target Acquisition Designation Sight/Pilot Night Vision Sensor (M-TADS/PNVS) system. M-TADS/PNVS equips Apache helicopter pilots with long-range, precision engagement and pilotage capabilities to achieve mission objectives and ensure flight safety at all times of day and night, in all weather conditions. The M-TADS/PNVS is divided into various subcomponents.
The targeting system, which includes day and night electro-optical sensors, is housed in the lower M-TADS turret. The Arrowhead targeting sensor suite incorporates forward-looking infrared (FLIR) parts of the TADS and PNVS to provide current technical and precision engagement, ensuring the Army's Apache helicopters remain successful attack helicopters well into the future. The laser rangefinder designator in the system contains an eye-safe rangefinder as well as a day sensor electronics unit that replaces the laser transceiver unit and accompanying electronics in Apache's historical day sensor assembly.
