The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for indicating that a target
(1), such as a vehicle, has been hit. The target is provided with information
on the weapon action, and a light source indicates a hit. The information can be
made available by direct electromagnetic transmission, for example via radio, or
by means of one or more strips (9-11) with detectors (13) being arranged
on the target (1). In the latter case, the detectors detect incident illuminating
electromagnetic radiation, and a light source indicates a hit when the incident
radiation satisfies defined detection criteria. According to the invention, the
light source is mounted directly in one or more strips (12) which in the
present case can be the same as the detector strips and consist of distributed
light points preferably in the form of light-emitting diodes (14). In this
way, a protected and integrated solution is obtained which has little effect on
the shape of the target.
