Close Air Support Missile Guidance and Control Study. Volume I. Six- Degree-of-Freedom Simulation

Abstract

This report describes in detail a six-degree-of-freedom program which can be used to determine the trajectory and miss distance of a missile system. The options for the program are such as to permit variation of the aerodynamics, seeker, autopilot actuator and missile motor performance for the purpose of accurately simulating a given missile design and evaluating the effects of changes in system parameters. Sufficient detail has been included in the text in order to minimize the users' effort needed to know how to update or modify the program for his purposes.
