Abstract

A 200-600 mm zoom system is proposed, which has been designed for the 0.6-1.1 micrometers wavelength band for target acquisition and aiming. The zooming capability is of high interest to avoid loosing the target as it is moving ; but in order to maintain a precise aiming line, the mechanical movements of the lens groups must not create a boresight shift in excess of 100 microradians. The system is also equipped with a wide dynamic iris, allowing illumination to vary with a ratio of 10₄.
