Javelin Missile guidance computer teardown 2
A French engineer posted his teardown video of the FGM-148 Javelin missile guidance computer.
Absolutely amazing – the cables, the mainboard etc.
Old tech by today’s standards. Just curious: As of 2023-2024, would a simple SBC like Raspberry 5 with GPIO do the same work?
Pi5 would not be appropriate, need faster processing with FPGAs.
Also whatever SBC you’re using need to be protected against jamming, interference, radiation, all other risk you find on a battlefield. It needs to have a redundancy systems in case the main CPU fails or something.
Not an armament expert just my 2¢ as an engineering student.
