>а именно в пункт 2-2 COMMAND LAUNCH UNIT STATUS INDICATORS под рисунком 2-10 третий абзац. Моих знаний английского не хватает что бы быстро разобраться, но кажется указанные 30 сек. до "красного сигнала" это и есть оно самое.
(3) Battery Coolant Unit (BCU) Indicator . The BCU indicator is located at the bottom of the CLU display at the far left. After seeker activation, the BCU indicator flashes to indicate the BCU has about 30 seconds of operating time remaining and illuminates solid red when the BCU is spent.
Мигание индикатора означает, что осталось 30 сек времени работы системы охлаждения батарей.
a. Time Space Factors. The gunner must take into consideration the factors that decrease the probability of hitting the target. He considers the following:
The time it takes for NVS cool down (2.5 to 3.5 seconds).
The time it takes for seeker activation (10 to 14 seconds).
The time it takes to adjust track gates, lock-on, and fire.
The time it takes for the missile to fly the distance to the target (2,000 meters in 14 seconds).
The speed of the vehicle.
The location of possible cover that the vehicle may be headed towards.
Any obstructions in the flight path of the missile.
NOTE: Keep in mind that there is a time delay of about 10 seconds between the time of seeker activation and when the seeker FOV comes on the CLU display.
Соответственно 30-60 сек это, наверное, полное время на поражение цели, включая полет к ней.
