TL;DR: An optimization algorithm is used consisting of a modified first-order differential dynamic programming method combined with an effective convergence-control technique to solve the nonlinear differential game problem of two aircraft performing a long-range missile duel.
Abstract: A delicate differential game is formed by two aircraft performing a long-range missile duel. The duel starts for each aircraft with a semiagressive phase until the launch of the missile, when a pure evasion commences. In numerically solving the nonlinear differential game problem, an optimization algorithm is used consisting of a modified first-order differential dynamic programming method combined with an effective convergence-control technique. The three-dimensional spatial motion of point mass vehicles with realistic models is treated. The results of optimizing the problem point out the potential of new tactics. If the vehicles are free to maneuver in altitude, the contributions from the missiles will dominate the outcome of the game. Of particular importance is the desirable ability to enter the game at a higher altitude than that of the opponent.

TL;DR: In this paper, a system for intercepting a target with a missile having semi-active homing guidance is presented, where the target is discretely illuminated by a laser beam and the missile homes on the reflected illumination from the target.

TL;DR: Methods selected for predicting the aerodynamics of missile configurations made up of circular, elliptic or arbitrary bodies with or without fins an inlets predict static and dynamic stability derivatives and are suitable for preliminary design.
Abstract: : Development of a Missile DATCOM handbook and computer program is described. The type of methods investigated as well as a method selection rationale is discussed. Methods were selected for predicting the aerodynamics of missile configurations made up of circular, elliptic or arbitrary bodies with or without fins an inlets. These methods predict static and dynamic stability derivatives and are suitable for preliminary design. A summary of the comparisons of many results with experimental data is included. Keywords: Computer aided design, DATCOM computer program, FORTRAN, Subsonic, Transonic, Supersonic, Hypersonic.
