M7L2 Missile design and development
A missile design is based on the following criteria 1. Why do you need? (Destructive capability that forms the basis of expected size and weight) 2. Where do you plan to use it? (Range that forms the basis of expected accuracy and reliability measured by Circular Error Probability) On that basis, the following components are selected 1. Propulsion system (Engines) 2. Propellant 3. Launchpad 4. Aerodynamics and sensors for Terminal navigation (inflight trajectory control) and guidance during boost » separation » penetration of atmosphere » detonation of warhead 5. Type of Warhead 6. Reentry heat shield/thermal shield to protect the nose during high G maneuvers. 7. Target locking system 8. Design concepts to reduce detection (stealth) On this basis, we divide the missiles...
