NATO Supply Class 1220 refers to Fire Control Computing Sights and Devices. This class is a part of NATO Supply Group 12, which is dedicated to Fire Control Equipment.
Fire Control Computing Sights and Devices are specialized equipment used in military applications for accurate targeting and aiming of weapons systems. These devices are designed to calculate and provide precise data such as range, elevation, azimuth, and other parameters required for effective fire control.
The equipment included in NATO Supply Class 1220 can vary, but it typically includes advanced sighting systems, target acquisition devices, and computerized fire control systems. These devices are used in various military platforms such as tanks, artillery systems, naval vessels, and aircraft.
The purpose of these devices is to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of weapon systems by providing real-time data and calculations to the operators. This enables them to engage targets with precision and minimize collateral damage.
NATO Supply Class 1220 plays a crucial role in modern military operations, as it ensures that the armed forces have access to the latest fire control computing sights and devices to maintain a technological advantage on the battlefield.
It is important to note that NATO Supply Classes and Groups are used for standardization and classification purposes within NATO member countries. These classifications help in the procurement, logistics, and interoperability of military equipment among NATO allies.
Note-Fire control assemblies, subassemblies, and components are classified: a. In appropriate classes of this group when: (1) Designed for multiple applications to different kinds of fire control equipment. (2) Modified for use with guided missile remote control systems. (3) Designed specifically for shipborne guided missile remote control systems. (4) Radar equipment, designed specifically for fire control systems. (5) Both day and night viewing characteristics are incorporated into an integral unit. b. In Class 1270 or 1280, when designed specifically for aircraft gunnery or aircraft bombing fire control, respectively. c. In Class 1430, when designed specifically for guided missile remote control systems, except shipboard type. d. In appropriate classes of Group 58, when designed for multiple applications to both fire control and communication equipment. e. In appropriate classes of Group 58 when designed for night vision.

Supply Items Included in Federal Supply Class 1220
- What is a Graphical Firing Scale? 256 Items
- A Graphical Firing Scale (SCALE,GRAPHICAL FIRING) is a device designed in the form of a slide rule, having one or more scales of varying ranges, on either surface, and a plastic cursor with a matte to receive pencil markings of range correction. It is used with various types of ground and sky-sweeper weapons to determine quadrant elevation, angle of sight, or drift, and to calculate the trajectory of a projectile in relation to a target. It may contain scales for yards to meters conversion and gage points which are used in conjunction with the cursor and range scale to convert data given in meters to yards. Scales may be in mils for determining high angle fire, time of flight, deflection shift, and the like.
- What is a Fire Control Computer? 24 Items
- A Fire Control Computer (COMPUTER,FIRE CONTROL) is a computer which provides calculations for the delivery of fire-power to a predetermined target. Do not use if a more specific name can be found in this index. See also COMPUTER, DEPTH CHARGE RELEASE TIME; COMPUTER, POSITION BOMBING; and COMPUTER, TERRAIN CLEARANCE.
- What is a General Field Artillery Computer Set? 17 Items
- A General Field Artillery Computer Set (COMPUTER SET,FIELD ARTILLERY,GENERAL) is a complete programmable set with self-contained power source for computation of cannon gunnery, sound/flash ranging and survey data in Field Artillery units. It includes an electronic hand-held computer that will accept and implement various software programs, carrying case, spare battery pack, adapter/charger, and like accessories. For computer sets with paper printout capabilities see COMPUTER SET, FIELD ARTILLERY, MISSILE.
- What is a Computer Subassembly? 187 Items
- A Computer Subassembly is two or more different types of items, having a common mounting or mounted on each other which together form a portion of a computer, but which in itself is not a complete functioning item and cannot be assigned a more definite item name.
- What is a Fire Control Computer Electronic Unit? 90 Items
- A Fire Control Computer Electronic Unit (ELECTRONIC UNIT,FIRE CONTROL COMPUTER) is a group of components in a single unit designed to be used with a COMPUTER (1), FIRE CONTROL. It contains electronic circuitry that serves as a memory unit for computing ballistic lead angles and the like. It may contain range counters (electronic), range storage and portions of built-in test circuitry. Excludes ELECTRONIC UNIT, LASER RANGING.
- What is a Ballistics Computer? 32 Items
- A Ballistics Computer (COMPUTER,BALLISTICS) is a computer which utilizes a power driven mechanism and/or electronic or electrical circuits to calculate the trajectory of a projectile in relation to a target.
- What is an Automatic Lead Computing Sight? 12 Items
- An Automatic Lead Computing Sight (SIGHT,LEAD COMPUTING,AUTOMATIC) is an instrument designed to direct the fire of automatic weapons against rapidly moving targets by computing, automatically and continuously, the offset of the gun bore axis from the line of sight in such a manner that the gun is constantly pointed at the advance position of the target while the line of sight is maintained on the target.
