The present invention relates to a semi-active laser seeker head for miniature, laser-guided missile systems comprising a housing (20) limiting an inner chamber (23); a lens element (40) that is seated in a gap (26) of the housing (20) reaching the inner chamber (23) so as to receive electromagnetic radiation. The laser seeker head comprises; a body (44) that has a convex surface (42) on which the lens element (40) gets completely seated in a gap (26) on one hand and that extends into the inner chamber (23) on the other hand; and a filter (52) that directly receives the electromagnetic radiation, which is focused by the convex surface (42), from the body (44) that lies before and selectively transfers it to a multi-channel sensor (56) arranged at the rear portion thereof based on a predetermined wavelength threshold.
A semi-active laser seeker head for miniature, laser-guided missile systems comprising a housing (20) limiting an inner chamber (23);
A laser seeker head according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, multi-channel sensor (56) comprises a mounting plate (54) that extends transversely in the inner chamber (23) in which the multi-channel sensor is positioned adjacent to the rear edge of the body (44) together with the filter (52).
A laser seeker head according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, lens element (40) is composed of a material having a high refractive index of 1.50 or more, and particularly of ceramic.
A laser seeker head according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, it comprises;
A laser seeker head according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, the multi-channel sensor (56) comprises four identical quadrant structures divided symmetrically to one another.
A miniature missile (10) comprising a laser seeker head according to any one of the preceding claims.
