JPS6457096A - Method of controlling guidance of parent and child type guided missile - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE: To ensure a semiactive horming guidance system having a long range and all-weather capability by providing a transmitter in a parent bullet, retarding a relative falling speed of the parent bullet after a child bullet is shot, and locating the parent bullet more behind the child bullet from a target as an irradiation machine of a child bullet seeker. CONSTITUTION: A parent bullet 1 flying toward a target 11 reaches a predetermined position of a target 11 in the sky with the aid of inertial induction or active homing induction, releases a child bullet 7 and separates a propulsion part 6, and develops a parachute 4 contained in a parachute containing part 5, and falls at a lower speed than the child bullet 7. The parent bullet 1 disposed above the child bullet 7 continuously transmits electric waves 12 toward the target 11 with the transmitter 3, and the parent bullet 1 follows the target 11 in itself with use of active homing, and a child bullet seeker 8 also receives reflected waves 13 from the target 11 and captures and follows the target 11 with use of a guidance controller 9. Hereby, semiactive guidance control of the child bullet is ensured together with insurance of a long range and all- weather capability.
