A firing weapon is associated with a laser radiation source mounted in proximity to the weapon and also with a detector which is sensitive to the laser radiation. The orientation of the radiation is adjusted independently of the aiming of the weapon in order to carry out continuous detection of the target as a result of detection of radiation by the detector after reflection from the target. The orientation and the time of transit of radiation between source and target are utilized in order to obtain target data relating to position in elevation and in azimuth as well as distance of the target. The data are processed in order to orient a real shot or in order to compare the data quantitatively with the position of a simulated projectile which follows a fictitious trajectory.

A method of fire control for firing at a real target comprising the steps of: associating a firing weapon with a laser radiation source and a detector sensitive to said radiation mounted in proximity to said weapon, automatically adjusting the orientation of the radiation from said source independently of the aiming of the weapon for continuous detection of the target as a result of detection of radiation by said detector after reflection from the target, determining said orientation and the time of transit of radiation between source and target, obtaining from said orientation and time of transit target data relating to the target position in elevation and azimuth, and to the target distance, and evaluating the result of a simulated shot by comparing said data quantitatively with the position of a simulated projectile along an expected trajectory, wherein said adjusting step comprises carrying out a first field scan by the radiation until detection of said radiation after reflection from the target, then tracking the target by a second field scan wherein the orientation of the radiation is maintained centered on the target during all target displacements.
