The book is great from optics for rifles, laser rangefinder and designators for infantry, tank optics/TIS, heliborne (which i mainly was interested but little bit disappointed since TOR Zenit is not published or kept secret), jetborne IRST, targeting pods, targeting sights to spy plane high resolution spy cameras and even space Laser based data transmitting laser, high telescopes for satellites, MAWS for aircrafts and tons of other stuff like this the Image Processing for Surveillance/Attack and Commanding aircrafts aka what the Ka-50/52 have.
The Image Processor was initially installed on the Ka-50 because the Radar was not ready and to ease the workload for combat, reconnaisance missions for single seater Ka-50 pilots it was installed so the Shkval-V could have a Search and track function similiar to a Radar but in the light spectrum. The Image Processor can recognize artificial lines like roads, or straight lines like on vehicles/tanks,bridges or buildings and it is a Subsystem of the T-90MS that was seen that it can even autotrack and lockon on each Window on a building for rapid and accurate gun and ATGM fire through the windows.
Thanks for those man, can you tell us more about the book ?
Cheers
