This study applies deep-reinforcement-learning algorithms to integrated guidance and control for three-dimensional, high-maneuverability missile-target interception. Dynamic environment, reward functions concerning multi-factors, agents based on the deep-deterministic-policy-gradient algorithm, action signals with pitch yaw fins as commands were constructed in research, which missile order inte...

The material in this overview is drawn from selected abstracts that appear in the Center for Nonproliferation Studies’ nuclear and missile databases. Transactions of nuclear and missile technologies, parts, and materials are listed according to the recipient country. Other developments are listed according to the country where the event or development took place. by Michael Barletta, Clay Bowen...

The thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations are solved for two complete missile configurations on an IBM 3090-200 vectro-facility supercomputer. The conservation form of the three-dimensional equations, written in generalized coordinates, are finite differenced and solved on a body-fitted curvilinear grid system developed in conjunction with the flowfield solver. The numerical procedure is based on ...

In information war, the concept of “digital battlefield” is put forward, and battlefield meteorological marine has become an important part digital battlefield. Based on in-depth analysis impact cruise missile, this paper puts forward multi-dimensional demand method supporting missile combat application architecture design based MBSE, gives conceptual framework system to provide support for app...

n the Air Defense Systems Department, systems engineering is a way of thinking. More than a “process,” the systems perspective drives our approach to solving emerging air and missile defense problems as the threat becomes more advanced and the tactical environment more complex. This perspective and the requisite tools have evolved with the increasing complexity of those systems. In this article...

A comprehensive review of data has not yet been provided as penetrating injury to the buttock is not a common condition accounting for 2-3% of all penetrating injuries. The aim of the study is to provide the as yet lacking analytical review of the literature on penetrating trauma to the buttock, with appraisal of characteristics, features, outcomes, and patterns of major injuries. Based on thes...

The fundamental objective of autopilot design for missile systems is to provide stability with satisfactory performance and robustness over the whole range of flight conditions throughout the entire flight envelope that missiles are required to operate in, during all probable engagements. Depending on the control mode (skid-to-turn or bank-to-turn), intercept scenario (such as surface to surfac...
