Title: Computational Procedures
Dialogue: The FCS receives data input in the following ways: Current mission data is inputted automatically through digital coded audio tone radio messages or manually through the FCP keyboard and, the EU munitions program are input from a cassette through a PLU. The EU automatically monitors, integrates and computes data from other FCS launcher electronic components. It continuously monitors the SRP/PDS data and computes launcher heading, location and altitude. The FCS determines firing data when the target information is received. When the crew enters the appropriate mission command, the FCS commands the LLM to lay on the required launch azimuth and elevation and sets the rocket fuze times or programs the warheads. The FCS fires the rockets or missiles when commanded by the gunner through the FCP.
