An example of the advanced technology employed in the Lance weapon system is its unique AN/GJM-24(XO-2) monitor/programmer, or MP. All the functions necessary to fire the missile are performed by the MP, which measures only 42X51X43 cm. This solid-state, combined analog and digital computer supplies pre-launch power to Lance from a 19-cell, 24v dc(direct current) Ni-Cad(Nickel-Cadmium) battery, it inserts range information into the missile guidance set before launch, controls the missile's safe, arming and firing mechanisms, and monitors the firing sequence.  1, record 1, English, - monitor%2Fprogrammer

Le caractère évolué de la technologie mise en œuvre dans le système d'arme Lance se manifeste par l'utilisation d'un contrôleur-séquenceur (MP) de tir AN/GJM-24 (XO-2) unique en son genre. Toutes les fonctions nécessaires à la mise à feu du missile sont assurées par ce MP (monitor/programmer), qui ne mesure que 42X51X43 cm. Ce calculateur (Solid-State) combiné analogique et numérique, fournit au Lance l'alimentation nécessaire avant le tir à partir d'une batterie 24v continu au Nickel-Cadmium à 19 éléments; il introduit l'information de distance dans le système de guidage, contrôle le fonctionnement des mécanismes de sécurité, d'armement et de mise à feu du missile, et surveille la séquence de mise à feu.  1, record 1, French, - contr%C3%B4leur%2Ds%C3%A9quenceur%20de%20tir

The tube-launched, optically-tracked, wire-guided(TOW) missile system is the primary long range anti-tank weapon for the army. Although normally vehicle mounted it can be carried short distances by the weapon crew. When mounted in a vehicle, the system consists of the launcher, sight unit, missile guidance set and the TOW encased missiles. The addition of the tripod and traverse and elevation units allows the system to be removed from the vehicle and operated from a remote location by the weapon crew. The TOW has a thermal image capability that allows the gunner to see through total darkness, rain, fog and smoke.  1, record 2, English, - tube%2Dlaunched%2C%20optically%2Dtracked%2C%20wire%2Dguided

The TOW [Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided] antitank guided missile is being improved under a new U. S. Army program. The first step will increase the missile's armor-penetrating capability with a redesigned five-inch-diameter warhead. The second step, called TOW 2, will include a heavier six-inch warhead and a microprocessor-based digital guidance set for increased accuracy and greater flexibility in guidance programming.  1, record 4, English, - digital%20guidance%20set

Des améliorations sont apportées au missile filoguidé antichar TOW [Tube-launched, Optically-tracked, Wire-guided] dans le cadre d'un nouveau programme de l'U.S. Army. La première étape consistera à améliorer sa capacité de perforation des blindages grâce à une ogive redessinée, qui a 12,7 cm de diamètre. Dans la seconde étape, baptisée TOW 2, le missile sera doté d'une ogive encore plus lourde, de 15,24 cm de diamètre, et d'un dispositif numérique de guidage basé sur microprocesseur, conçu pour améliorer la précision et la souplesse de programmation du guidage.  1, record 4, French, - dispositif%20num%C3%A9rique%20de%20guidage
