Technologies for Future Precision Strike Missile Systems (les Technologies des futurs systemes de missiles pour frappe de precision)
Abstract
This lecture series addressed recent advances in the state-of-the-art for precision strike missile systems. Emerging technologies that were addressed in the lecture series included: * Missile aeromechanics technologies. Assessments included hypersonic airframes, low cost/high temperature structure, and ramjet propulsion. * Guidance & control technologies. An overview of existing guidance and control was given. Assessments included precision navigation using light weight/low GPS/INS and optimal guidance laws. * Seeker technologies. Assessments included active and passive imaging infrared and radar seekers. * Missile design technologies. Assessments included computer programs and electronic spreadsheets for conceptual design. * Missile/aircraft integration technologies. Assessments included high firepower weapon concepts, reduced observables, and insensitive munitions. * Simulation/validation technologies. Assessments included hardware-in-the-loop and design validation. * Automatic target recognition. Assessments included robust algorithms and hardware/algorithm optimization.
