Description

This course is an introduction to the multi disciplinary engineering found in guided weapons. It covers dispersion errors in unguided weapons, the modelling of a weapon trajectory and looks at guided weapons from a system perspective. The course focus is on guided weapons instrumentation, guided weapons autopilots (control), and the application of automatic control guidance methods including guidance homing & proportional navigation. An overview is presented on guidance homing heads, proximity fuses & arming, acoustic guidance and counter measures.
