In this paper, a new guidance method for surface to surface ballistic missiles without mandatory engine cut-off will be presented. The complexity of solid fuel engine cut-off demands a comprehensive method for guiding these missiles. In the method presented in this paper, a certain guidance law is applied such that by transmitting appropriate commands to the control system, by changing the miss...
