A method for aiming a weapon barrel [B], wherein a target image [Z*] and a target marker [X] are displayed with the aid of an image visualization unit M. The rough aiming of the weapon barrel [B] is performed in a first phase, in a second phase, with the weapon barrel [B] stationary, sighting by sighting the target image [Z*] by means of the image visualization unit [V] is performed, wherein the target image [Z*] and the target marker [X] are brought into coincidence as closely as possible, and fine aiming of the weapon barrel [B] in a third phase. The device for executing the method comprises a device for setting an initial gun sight angle [ψo] an image visualization unit [V], the latter displays a target image [Z*] and a target marker [X] representing the end of an imaginary projectile trajectory [p]. The device contains a fire control device, with the image visualization unit [V], an angle measuring device [Y] for measuring angular changes [Δψ] and a data processing unit [EDV] for performing a ballistics calculation, in which the angular change [Δψ] and the interior ballistics can be taken into consideration, as well as for issuing a signal determining the target marker [X]. The device is suitable for infantry weapons.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for aiming a weapon on a target, the weapon having a weapon barrel with a weapon barrel axis, being adapted to launch a projectile along a trajectory, having a fire control device with a data processing unit, and having a programming unit for programming the project
What is claimed is: 1. A method for aiming a weapon on a target, the weapon having a weapon barrel with a weapon barrel axis, being adapted to launch a projectile along a trajectory, having a fire control device with a data processing unit, and having a programming unit for programming the projectile, wherein a target image representing the target and a target marker representing the end of a projectile trajectory are displayed with the aid of an image visualization unit having a sighting line, the method comprising the following steps: in a first phase: the weapon is fastened on a mount, and rough aiming of the weapon barrel is performed, wherein deployment data are determined, which define the position of the target in relation to the weapon, and an initial gun sight angle corresponding to the deployment data is set between the weapon barrel axis and the sighting line of the image visualization unit; in a second phase, with the weapon barrel stationary: sighting of the target is performed, the target being sighted by means of the visualization unit, wherein the initial gun sight angle is changed by an angular change, the angular change is measured, data related to the angular change are made available to the data processing unit by means of conductor lines, and further data including the deployment data and including data relating to the projectile to be fired and the projectile interior ballistics are made available to the data processing unit in order to enable the data processing unit to continuously perform a ballistics calculation and to make a signal available describing the position of the target marker to be displayed, the target marker is displayed, and the target image and the target marker are brought into coincidence as closely as possible, and in a third phase: fine aiming of the weapon barrel is performed, and the projectile is programmed by means of the programming unit. 2. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the determination of the deployment data takes place with the aid of means external to the weapon including at least one of a topographic map and a GPS. 3. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the displayed target image is an image of the visible target, which can be attacked by direct firing. 4. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein a deployment distance is determined as the deployment data. 5. The method in accordance with claim 4, wherein the determination of the deployment distance takes place by approximately determining a distance range within which the deployment distance is assumed to lie. 6. The method in accordance with claim 4, wherein the determination of the deployment distance takes place by means of a distance measuring unit internal to the weapon including a laser distance measuring unit. 7. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the setting of the gun sight angle is performed manually. 8. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the data made available to the data processing unit and which relate to the projectile include data relating to the exterior ballistics of the projectile. 9. The method in accordance with claim 8, wherein the data relating to the exterior ballistics include meteorological data. 10. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein data or a signal are made available to the data processing unit, which indicate whether there will be direct or indirect firing. 11. The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the setting of the gun sight angle takes place in steps into defined positions of rest.
