In the controlled and stabilized platform (1) comprising a plurality of optical apparatuses, the optical apparatuses (8, 9, 10) are mounted in a casing (7) which is pivotable about a sight axis (12) in a bearing (13) which is pivotable about a bearing axis (14), the casing (7) and the bearing (13) being controlled about their axes (12) and (14) by motors (40) and (38) actuated by detectors measuring variations in the angular position of a stabilized input mirror (11) which reflects radiations going to the optical apparatuses or coming from the latter.

Controlled and stabilized platform

The invention relates to periscopic apparatus for the observation and aiming or sighting apparatus, particularly for mounting on a vehicle, having a stabilized panoramic gunsight head positioned externally of the vehicle and a corresponding sight tube with at least one eye piece positioned within the said vehicle. The sight tube and the gunsight head are interconnected by a wall-traversing periscopic ferrule which can be substituted by a sleeve in which is placed either a nocturnal vision means or a ranging means or both of the said means.
