A STUDY IS PROPOSED TO DEFINE AND EVALUATE CANDIDATE DUAL BALLISTIC COEFFICIENT (BETA) CONFIGURATIONS WHICH ARE FEASIBLE AND APPROPRIATE FOR THE HOMING PRECURSOR JAMMER (HPJ) SYSTEM. EMPHASIS WILL BE PLACED ON EVOLVING CONFIGURATIONS FEATURING MODERATE-TO-HIGH BETA AERODYNAMICALLY STABLE FIRST-STAGE FLIGHT PERFORMANCE AT HYPERSONIC/ SUPERSONIC SPEEDS, AND LOW-BETA AERODYNAMICALLY STABLE SECOND-STA ...

A STUDY IS PROPOSED TO DEFINE AND EVALUATE FEASIBLE JAMMER EXPULSION CONCEPTS FOR THE HOMING PRECURSOR JAMMER (HPJ) SYSTEM, AND TO ASSESS THE IMPLICATIONS OF CANDIDATE EXPULSION CONCEPTS ON JAMMER AEROTHERMODYNAMIC PERFORMANCE AND REQUIREMENTS. CONCEPTS WHICH FEATURE THE SEQUENTIAL EXPULSION/EJECTION OF INDIVIDUAL JAMMERS AXIALLY OUT THE REAR OF THE CARRIER VEHICLE WILL BE EMPHASIZED. RELIABLE CON ...

N/A

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN ARMOR TECHNOLOGY AND THE INTRODUCTION OF EFFECTIVE APPLIQUES HAVE GREATLY INCREASED THE DIFFICULTY OF MUNITION DESIGN. WARHEADS CAPABLE OF DEFEATING THESE ADVANCED ARMORS MUST BE DEVELOPED. IMPROVEMENTS IN UNITARY WARHEADS, SUCH AS INCREASING THE DENSITY OF THE LINER IN A SHAPED-CHARGE DEVICE, ARE CURRENTLY BEING RESEARCHED. TWO-STAGE CONCEPTS RECENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION MA ...

THIS PROPOSED EFFORT IS CONCERNED WITH AN ACTIVE R.F. COUNTERMEASURE OF THE DECEPTION TYPE FOR MISSILE SYSTEMS EMPLOYING PHASE MONOPULSE SEEKERS. IT IS ESSENTIALLY A GUIDANCE LOOP DESTABILIZER WHERE THE GUIDANCE LOOP, BY DEFINITION, INCLUDES GEOMETRY AND KINEMATICS. FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS TOPIC CANNOT BE INCLUDED IN THIS ABSTRACT BECAUSE OF CLASSIFICATION.
