EQUATIONS OF MOTION FOR MISSILES WITH SIX DEGREES OF FREEDOM. PART 1. FORCES AND TORQUES ACTING OF THE MISSILE

Abstract

The physical factors underlying the numerous aerodynamic coefficients are discussed. Mechanical factors for spinning and non-spinning missiles, forces and torques, Magnus factors, missile asymmetry, jet factors, and guidance factors are considered.
