Surface-to-surface projectiles are fired from ground launchers to specified ground targets to destroy them in an effective and economical manner. The mentioned munition is usually unguided and thus follows a ballistic trajectory. However, it is inevitable to have large miss distances when the diverting effects of the wind and thrust uncertainty are apparent. In this study, a gradual guidance and control strategy is proposed to improve the performance of this kind of munition. The effectiveness of this approach is shown by means of relevant computer simulations. The use of a simpler and cheaper nose actuation kit with pneumatic actuation makes this approach a preferable option for the application.

Karadan Karaya Bir Merminin Burun Eyletim Kiti Kullanılarak Güdüm ve Denetimi

Etkili ve ekonomik bir şekilde yok etmek için satıhtan satha füzeler yer rampalarından belirlenen yer hedeflerine ateşlenir. Bahsedilen mühimmat genellikle güdümsüzdür ve bu nedenle balistik bir yörünge izler. Bununla birlikte, rüzgarın ve itme belirsizliğinin yön değiştirici etkilerinin açık olduğu durumlarda büyük ıskalama mesafelerine sahip olmak kaçınılmazdır. Bu çalışmada, bu tür mühimmatın performansını artırmak için aşamalı bir rehberlik ve kontrol stratejisi önerilmiştir. Bu yaklaşımın etkinliği, ilgili bilgisayar simülasyonları aracılığıyla gösterilmiştir. Pnömatik çalıştırmalı daha basit ve daha ucuz bir burun çalıştırma kitinin kullanılması, bu yaklaşımı uygulama için tercih edilen bir seçenek haline getirir.
