Contents
Missile is a weapon or object that is thrown at a target
OR
A projectile that is, something thrown or otherwise propelled
What is missile..?
There are two types of missiles.
UNGUIDED OR BALLISTIC MISSILES which moves freely to the target and can’t be controlled after launching e.g. missiles of tank
GUIDED MISSILES which are guided through some remote controls e.g. Cruise missile
Types of missile
A cruise missile is basically a small unmanned aircraft.
They are also called as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large warhead over long distance with high accuracy.
Modern cruise missiles can travel at supersonic or high subsonic speeds, are self-navigating .

Tomahawk Cruise missile
Cruise missiles:1. have 8.5-foot (2.61-meter) wingspan2. powered by turbofan engines3. can fly 500 to 1,000 miles (805 to 1,610
km) depending on the configuration. 4. deliver a 1,000-pound (450-kg) high-
explosive bomb to a precise location of the target.

GENERAL DESIGN
GENERAL DESIGN
Cruise missile generally consist of 1. Guidance system,2. Payload, and 3. Propulsion system, housed in an airframe with small wings. Payload usually consist of a conventional
warhead or a nuclear warhead. Cruise missile is propelled by a jet engine.
General design OF Cruise Missile
Cruise missiles can be categorized by 1. size 2. speed(subsonic/supersonic), 3. range, or4. whether launched from:i. land,ii. air,iii. ship, iv. submarine.
Categories
Air and submarine launched versions are a little lighter and smaller than land- and ship- launched versions.
Larger missiles can carry either a conventional or a nuclear warhead, while smaller ones can carry only conventional warhead .

Categories
The purpose of a guidance system is to direct the missile to target .
Use of an automatic target recognition (ATR) algorithm/device in the guidance system increases accuracy of the missile.
Guidance systems
Inertial navigation system
TERCOM (Terrain Contour Matching)
DSMAC (Digital Scene-Mapping Area Correlator)
Satellite navigation
Types of guidance systems
Inertial Navigation System:
An inertial navigation system includes1. a computer and a platform containing
accelerometers,2. gyroscopes, or3. other motion-sensing devices. Accelerometers measure the vertical, lateral, and
longitudinal accelerations of the controlled missile .
Gyroscopes measure the angular velocity of the system.

INTERNAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM
TERCOM(Terrain contour matching)
It uses a pre-recorded contour map of the terrain that is compared to measurements made during flight by an on-board radar altimeter.
The missile's radar altimeter feeds measurements into a smaller buffer, and averages them out to produce a single measurement.
The series of such numbers a strip of measurements similar to those held in the maps. The two are compared to overlay the strip on the known map, and the positioning of the strip within the map produces a location and direction.

DSMAC(Digital scene-mapping area correlator):
A series of photographs are taken from surveillance aircraft and are put into a carousel in the missile.
Another camera takes pictures out of the bottom of the missile.
A computer compares the two images and attempts to line up areas of high contrast.
This system is very slow and its role is being taken up by TERCOM.

Satellite navigation:
Using a satellite positioning system, such as GPS.
Satellite navigation systems are precise and
cheap.
If the satellites are interfered ten, the satellite
navigation system becomes inoperable.
The GPS-based navigation is useful in a conflict
with a technologically unsophisticated adversary.

Satellite navigation
The big advantage of the cruise missile is its smallness and cost.
Its small size also improved the weapon’s chances of penetration.
The map matching system (TERCOM) is combined with an inertial navigational system in a system called TAINS. This not only gets the cruise missile to its target but also with an high accuracy.
Advantages
The lack of a human pilot means you can't re-use
the thing, whereas you can get multiple missions
out of a piloted aircraft.
Their low and slow flight means they can be
engaged by a much wider variety of systems.
The missiles aren't always accurate, they're
expensive..
Disadvantage
Future advancement in cruise missile
BrahMos cruise missile On June 12/2001, the BrahMos cruise missile took off from
its launched at Chandipur-on-a- Sea, Orissa, and reached a
speed of up to mach 2, it becomes the first ever supersonic
cruise missile that used liquid ram jet technology.
The missile, with range of 280 k, weighted three tones.
The BeahMos will not carry nuclear warhead because it is
an anti ship missile that can be launched from ships,
submarines, aircrafts and land
The BrahMos is a product of an INDO-RASSIAN joint venture
known by the same name.
The BrahMos missile,
1. Travelling at 2.8 to 3 times the speed of sound
(mach2.8to3)
2. Is three times faster than a subsonic cruise
missile such as the Tomahawk of the U.S.
3. Has 9 times the killing power because the killing
power is proportional to the square of the
velocity.
Specification of BrahMos cruise missile
In most recent attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq, America depended mostly on cruise missiles to attack different target.
Success rates for both strikes were above 90%.
In all ,cruise missiles firing power shows a greater tan 85% accuracy rate
Iraq and Afghanistan War
Currently cruise missiles are among the most expensive of single-use weapons, up to several million dollars apiece. However, they are cheaper than human pilots when total training and infrastructure costs are taken into account.
Guidance System used in cruise missile is a complex system which involves several systems working in random. it is essential that guidance system is properly designed for accurate interception of targets.
