A weapons system is comprised of a human transported weapon for firing a munition through a barrel aimed towards an identified target, a targeting subsystem, a decision subsystem, a weapons aim adjustment controller, and, a targeting subsystem for choosing, from up to a plurality of targets, one said target as a selected target in a field of view of the human transported weapon. The targeting subsystem chooses, from up to a plurality of targets, one said target as a selected target in a field of view of the human transported weapon. The decision subsystem compares where the selected target is located versus where the barrel is aimed. The weapons aim adjustment controller, adjusts aim of the barrel so that when fired, the munition will hit the selected target, responsive to the decision subsystem. The firing subsystem fires the munitions at the selected target at a first firing time responsive to the weapons aim adjustment controller. The munition is tracked after it is fired, to generate tracked munitions data. The selected target is tracked after the munitions is fired, to generate tracked target data.
