The Stores Management System (SMS) provides precise control over the carriage, release, and launch of aircraft weapons while seamlessly integrating with targeting sensors. It functions as a stand-alone system or as part of the Mission Computer architecture, with commands entered via the Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) or a dedicated display like the LPP WX-80, ensuring efficient weapon management.
Compliant with MIL-STD-1760 and MIL-STD-1553 standards, the SMS supports mixed weapon loads, including unguided and laser-guided munitions. It configures pylons, monitors weapon status, and detects faults in real-time. Additionally, integrated EO/IR capabilities enhance targeting accuracy by synchronizing optical navigation, calculating ballistics, and providing azimuth and elevation constraints for precise weapon deployment.
LPP also developed fire-management and launching system WX-80 based on cloud seeding technology.
