Fire control system (SLA, SUV) - an automated system that combines a set of sensors and technical equipment. Provides search, detection and identification of targets; preparation of weapons for firing, their guidance and the solution of the problem of hitting the target.
Fire control systems are used on warships, submarines, airplanes, tanks, self-propelled artillery installations, air defense complexes. Sonars , radars , infrared detectors, laser range finders , anemometers , weathervanes, thermometers are often used as sensors. The OMS also includes sights.
Among the actuators, you can specify the stabilizer weapons , programming systems and guidance of guided weapons,

History
Marine
The ship’s armament control system includes radar, acoustic, optoelectronic, laser and other guidance systems, automation equipment for controlling missile-artillery and mine-torpedo armament, anti-submarine , anti-aircraft and anti-missile defenses . It can be either an independent functional unit, or included as a subsystem in more complex and multi-part super - systems of combat means control.

Aviation
LMS - weapon control system (as an option: SURO - missile control system, airborne weapon control system, RWMS - aircraft control system and aircraft defense system), or CMS - aircraft’s weapons control system is an on-board integrated aircraft weapon system that serves direct control of rocket-bomb and (or) small arms and guns, as well as for interfacing various onboard systems and devices in terms of tangential use (including automatic application) of arms. On various types of aeronautical engineering, it can be from the simplest, consisting of a pair of control panels in the cabin and a pair of distribution and switching units in the cargo compartment , to a complex electronic computer system under the control of its own on-board computer .
