Addition of a telemetry function in an artillery radar device fuze

A fuze (1) for an explosive weapon, comprising:

• onboard sensors (8) to monitor operation of the fuze (1) and/or of the explosive weapon,
• a radar device (9) to transmit radar signals and receive reflected radar signals, and
• an electronic signal processor (10) connected to the onboard sensors (8) and to the radar sensor (9),
• the electronic signal processor (10) is programmed to implement a main operating function designed to implement an explosive weapon detonation logic based on received radar signals from the radar device (9) or on signals from the onboard sensors (8);
• wherein the electronic signal processor (10) is further programmed to implement a secondary operating function supplementary to the main operating function and comprising a telemetry function designed to determine, based on signals from the onboard sensors (8), and to transmit, via the radar device (9), telemetry data indicative of flight diagnostics of the explosive weapon during flight thereof,
• wherein the electronic signal processor (10) is further programmed to allow an implementation mode of the secondary operating function to be programmed, and
• wherein the electronic signal processor (10) is further programmed to allow the implementation mode of the secondary operating function to be selected from available implementation modes comprising an implementation mode in which the secondary operating function is implemented in periods of time when the main operating function is not implemented, and an implementation mode in which the secondary operating function is implemented simultaneously with the main operating function.
