A Missile Flyout Model for ISEAS (Interactive Simulation of Engagements at Sea)
Abstract
ISEAS (Interactive Simulation of Engagements at Sea) is a computer program currently under development at the Naval Postgraduate School to simulate interactions between a ship loaded with surface-to-air missile systems and an attacking aircraft or anti-ship missile. The portion of ISEAS described in this thesis is a translation of the Fortran program MICE II for the flyout of a surface to air missile to the C language. Three different missile systems are simulated. The C program includes coordinate transformations, launcher bearing and elevation calculations, the proportional navigation equation for missile guidance, and the missile's equations of motion. The program contains a description of the missile engagements with air target and provides a basis for the evaluation of surface-to-air missile launching opportunities and subsequent missile performance under realistic encounter conditions. The missile program provides the basic framework and sophistication can be easily implemented.
