Thermal imaging sighting system

Archer TSA-7/75

360°

Overview

Thermal imaging sighting system for riflemen Archer TSA-7/75 (hereinafter referred to as the System) is designed for:

    • searching, detecting and monitoring thermal contrast targets and objects;
    • sight shooting, as part of small arms and weapons, on the ground in any light conditions (any time of day), in adverse weather conditions and in limited visibility conditions (smoke, fog, hidden by vegetation or blending in with the surroundings);
    • active measurement of the distance (rangefinding) to the selected object (target) using a laser rangefinder that is safe for the human eye (class 1 according to DSTU EN 60825-1);
    • calculation and output of automatic ballistic corrections, for any type of weapon and ammunition, calculation and output of manual ballistic corrections;
    • video recording of the image on the built-in flash memory.

Advantages

The system‘s key advantage is a ballistic calculator: it can consider atmospheric conditions (received from the built-in weather station or entered manually), wind of any direction and speed of 11 yd/s, derivation, angle of sight and the Coriolis force. Temperature of dust powder is also considered together with sensitivity factor (automatically or manually). Moreover, the complex automatically remembers adjustment conditions for a specific cartridge and enters firingcorrections under other conditions. Both standard (G1, G7) and specific drag functions (based on Lapua Radar Data or generated by external ballistic programs) are supported in the system.

Infrared receiver

The device is equipped with a highly sensitive passive receiver of far infrared band (LWIR). ARCHER TSA-7 has a built-in colour high-resolution micro display and an eyepiece with diopter adjustment.
Several set colour schemes and sensitivity settings allow to choose the necessary display option depending on the tasks performed.
Optical system characteristics and unique functions make a device an indispensable tool for a wide range of use with any weapon, including large caliber sniper rifles and machine guns.

Інтелектуальна балістична система

Archer TSA-7/75 оснащений передовим балістичним обчислювачем, який враховує атмосферні умови (з вбудованої або зовнішньої метеостанції), деривацію, кут місця цілі та силу Коріоліса. Автоматично або вручну коригується температура пороху, що дозволяє мінімізувати вплив зовнішніх факторів на точність пострілу. Комплекс запам’ятовує умови пристрілювання конкретного боєприпасу та вносить відповідні поправки під час стрільби в змінених умовах. Підтримуються стандартні драг-функції (G1, G7), а також спеціалізовані алгоритми, зокрема Lapua Radar Data або сторонні балістичні програми.
