Bu araştırma, yaygınlıkla taaruz amaçlı kullanılan helikopterlere entegre edilen aviyonik alt sistemlerden Kask Üzeri Gösterim Sistemi (HMDS) ve Taretli Top Sistemleri'nin operasyonel önemini vurgulamayı amaçlamıştır. HMDS'nin hedef tespiti ve nişan alma gibi fonksiyonel yetenekleri ile Taretli Top Sistemleri'nin çeşitli tehditlere karşı savunma, angaje olma kabiliyetlerini ele almaktadır. Araştırmanın odak noktası, Taretli Top Sistemleri'nin, HMDS ile birlikte kullanımı sırasında platform kaynaklı bozucu etkenler, Taretli Top Sistemleri'nin dispersiyon ve HMDS'nin hedefleme performans değerleri gibi parametrik verilerin elde edilmesi ve Taretli Top Sistem'ine iletilmeden önce Kalman filtresinden geçirilerek iletimini değerlendirmektir. Bulgular, helikopter aviyonik sistemlerindeki teknolojik gelişmelerin operasyonel etkinlik üzerindeki derin etkilerini anlamamıza yardımcı olurken, bu çalışma aynı zamanda dispersiyon değerlerinin kullanım sırasındaki vuruş başarım performansı üzerindeki etkilerini de aydınlatmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın önerdiği yöntem ışığında çıkan sonuçların daha stabil hale geleceği ve bu stabil verilerle Taretli Top Sistemleri'nin kontrol edilmesi sonrasında hedef vuruş başarım performansının artabileceği değerlendirilmektedir. Birbirinden farklı performans karakteristiğine sahip alt sistemlerin ve filtreleme metotlarının incelenmesi ile çalışma geliştirebilir.

The Turreted Gun System Technology Integrated To The Helmet Mounted Display System

This research aims to emphasize the operational importance of avionics subsystems integrated into helicopters, primarily used for assault purposes, such as the Helmet Mounted Display System (HMDS) and Turreted Gun Systems. It addresses the functional capabilities of HMDS in target detection and aiming, as well as the defense and engagement capabilities of Turreted Gun Systems against various threats. The focus of the research is on evaluating the parametric data, such as the dispersion of the Turreted Gun Systems and the targeting performance values of the HMDS, during their use together. It also assesses the transmission of this data through a Kalman filter before being sent to the Turreted Gun Systems to mitigate platform-induced disruptive factors. The findings help us understand the profound impact of technological advancements in helicopter avionics systems on operational effectiveness. Additionally, this study sheds light on the impact of dispersion values on hit performance during usage. It is assessed that the proposed method in this study will result in more stable data, and that controlling the Turreted Gun Systems with this stable data can enhance hit performance. The study can be further developed by examining subsystems with different performance characteristics and filtering methods.
