Abstract

The structure of the fire control system(FCS) of a light armed helicopter and effective logistics support was taken into account in the proposed common weapon interface module(CWIM) for a distributed FCS. The pros and cons of a distributed FCS and a centralized FCS were analyzed, then a CWIM which can be applied to the weapon interface module of a distributed FCS was designed and fabricated. Integration tests between the proposed CWIM and a weapon simulator were conducted to ascertain whether or not the proposed CWIM could be applicable to a distributed FCS. We expect that the CWIM design approach method secured through this study will be helpful in mitigating cable work of the FCS which will be applied to a Light Armed Helicopter and controlling various weapons.

소형무장헬기(Light Armed Helicopter, LAH)의 사격통제시스템(Fire Control System, FCS) 구조와 효과적인 군수지원을 고려하여 분산형 FCS 구조에 적합한 공통 무장 인터페이스 모듈(Weapon interface module, WIM)을 제안하였다. FCS를 분산형 구조와 집중형 구조로 구분하여 장단점을 분석하였으며 분산형 구조 FCS의 무장인터 페이스장치(Store Station Interface Unit, SSIU)에 적용되는 공통 WIM을 설계 및 제작하였다. 제안된 공통 WIM은 무장모의기와의 통합 시험을 통해 분산형 FCS에 적용 가능함을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 확보된 공통 WIM 설계 방법은 LAH FCS의 케이블 작업을 경감시키고 여러 종류의 무장 제어에 도움이 되리라 예상된다.
