Abstract:
An active short pulse fuze system for arming on a true target acquisition and firing only on the loss of the acquired target signal. The sea surface is tracked by means of a sea tracking loop A target threshold is established and is coupled to the sea tracking loop so as to expand and contract with the sea tracking. A return signal will pass the target threshold only when there is an abrupt reduction in range, indicating the presence of a target. The presence of this signal will arm the firing circuit. An abrupt increase in range will indicate the loss of the target and cause immediate detonation of the warhead.
