A Multiple Rocket Launcher Simulation. Report II

Abstract

A multiple-launching simulation program was devised which fires rockets in real time from a multiple launcher mounted on a transporter. This simulator was used to establish error budget inputs for general support rocket systems. Comparisons of the launch effects on system accuracies for various size rockets were conducted. This program has provided a means whereby a launcher concept may be developed which can effectively reduce the errors due to rocket unbalance and thrust misalignment.
