  • heat influences, vibration influences, sound effects and electromagnetic influences must be considered individually in each component of the guided missile.
  • Most of the components are housed in their own enclosures, which protect the actual components from these influences.
  • the components are subsequently combined in a carrier structure, the carrier structure itself providing additional protection.
  • the missile is surrounded by an outer shell that provides further protection.
  • the object is achieved by the features of the independent claim.

Intermediate spaces are to be understood as meaning all subvolumes within a volume encompassed by the carrier structure, which components do not correspond to components of the invention Missile are provided. This means, in particular, that the entire volume encompassed by the carrier structure is filled up either with components of the guided missile or with the filling material by introducing filling material.
  • the support structure is refillable, so that the missile is always a full-volume missile regardless of the modules used.
  • external influences such as in particular heat influences, sound influences, electromagnetic influences or vibration influences.
  • the missile is thus easy and inexpensive to manufacture and at the same time has a high robustness against external influences.
