An active anti-ship missile decoy system was designed conceptually to analyze propulsion system requirements and feasibility to use a liquid bi-propellant rocket engine. Overall mass, size, and shape were assumed referring to specifications of Nulka which was developed by US and Australia in 1990s. The propulsion system was assumed to be a 1,000 N-class $H_2O_2$/kerosene rocket engine with a pressurized feed system. A three-degree-of-freedom optimal trajectory was calculated based on the assumptions, and mass budget was designed from the calculation results. It was found that the requirements for the propulsion system is that it shall be operated more than 100 sec; it shall be re-ignitable; it shall have a throttle capability of a range from 35% to 100% when the maximum thrust at sea level is 1,000 N.

In this paper, the optimal evasive maneuver strategies for typical subsonic ASM(anti-ship missile) to reach its target ship with high survivability against CIWS(close in weapon system) are studied. The optimal evasive maneuver input is defined by the homing command optimizing the cost function which takes aiming errors of CIWS into account. The optimization problem for the effective evasive maneuver is formulated based on a simple missile dynamics model and a CIWS model. By means of solving the problem, a multiple hypotheses testing method is proposed. Since this method requires generation of too many hypotheses, the hypothesis-pruning technique is adopted. The solution shows that the optimal evasive maneuver is a bang-bane shaped command whose frequency is varied by the aimpoint determination strategy in CIWS.

The warship is run based on the combat system which shares tactical information collected by target detection systems and navigation devices across a network, and conducts the command and control of weapons from target detection to kill assessment. The short-range air defense missile system defends a warship from anti-ship missiles, aircraft, helicopter and other threats in order to contribute to the survival of a warship and the success of missions. The short-range air defense missile system is applied to a various combat systems. In this paper, we have proposed the interface design between the short-range air defense missile and dissimilar combat systems. To employ the short-range air defense missile at dissimilar combat systems, each system is driven by independent processor, and the tasks which are performed by each system are assigned. The information created by them is exchanged through the interface, and the flow of messages is designed.

Traditional autopilot design requires an accurate aerodynamic model and relies on a gain schedule to account for system nonlinearities. This paper presents the control architecture applied to a dynamic model inversion at a single flight condition with an on-line neural network (NN) in order to regulate errors caused by approximate inversion. This eliminates the need for an extensive design process and accurate aerodynamic data. The simulation results using a developed full nonlinear 6 degree of freedom model are presented. This paper also presents the stability evaluation for control systems to which NNs were applied. Although feedback can accommodate uncertainty to meet system performance specifications, uncertainty can also affect the stability of the control system. The importance of robustness has long been recognized and stability margins were developed to quantify it. However, the traditional stability margin techniques based on linear control theory can not be applied to control systems upon which a representative non-linear control method, such as NNs, has been applied. This paper presents an alternative stability margin technique for NNs applied to control systems based on the system responses to an inserted gain multiplier or time delay element.

This paper presents a homing guidance law of anti-ship missiles using flight path angle to achieve an impact time constraint as well as an impact angle constraint. the independent variable in the nonlinear engagement model is change d from the flight time to the heading angle of the missile. The proposed guidance law can home a missile to the target with zero miss distance as well as satisfying both of the impact angle and time constraints. The performance of the proposed guidance law is evaluated by the computer simulations.

In anti-ship missile, the seeker and guidance control units are located in front of warhead. When the missile hits target, these structures play an important role to warhead structure like a shock absorber Because the shock waves are attenuated, the survival probability of warhead increases which guarantees the explosive train. In this thesis the role of frontal sections is studies. The theoretical analysis and numerical analyses using LS-DYNA code are performed. To prove the effect of shock absorber, the penetration test using subscale prototype warhead are executed.

Abroad warships are confronted with various menaces. The most critical threat of the warship is an Anti-Ship Missile (ASM). The ASM is able to be launched at a variety of environments and platforms. The ASM can evades conventional naval radar systems and electronic countermeasure techniques for providing a fatal damage to the warship. To cope with the ASM, an active decoy is an effective method to minimize the direct damage to the warship. The active decoy increases survivability of the warship because the ASM can lure pursuit of the active decoy instead of the warship. In this paper, our proposed method verifies an available response time of the active decoy to deal with the ASM using the active decoy of the warship in marine environments. We defined models of the warship, the ASM, and the active decoy, and executed simulation by combining the models. By the simulation result, the proposed method demonstrated the superiority of the mobile active decoy of the response time decoy among various active decoys, and estimated a protection area to prevent the ASM according the response time of the mobile active decoy against the ASM.

Ship infrared signature is the cause of detection and tracking by infrared sensor and anti-ship missile seeker. Recent warships have been applied the infrared stealth technology to reduce own ship infrared signature and tested to validate own ship infrared signature level. This study describes the two issues. Firstly, we describe the infrared measurement concept and infrared signature level establishment method that have been performed. Secondly, we compare and analyze the error components between the infrared measurement and simulation result.

In this paper, we propose a new time-to-go estimation filter for PN guided missiles. The proposed estimator is derived based on the approximation of the length of the PNG homing trajectory that we newly introduced using the special coordinate system. The coordinate system is convenient for taking the target movement into account. In addition, compared with the previous time-to-go estimation techniques, the parameters required for evaluating the length can be obtained only with the seeker measurements. Moreover, the seeker measurement error statistics can effectively be considered since our filter is derived based on the Kalman filter theory. Simulation result for a typical anti-ship see-skimming missile homing trajectory shows the excellent performance of the proposed filter.

Since the first Aegis Cruiser USS Ticonderoga was constructed, Arleigh Burke class destroyers are being mass constructed as U.S. Naval capital surface ships and consistently improved the performance. In recent years, the newest aegis combat system, Baseline 9, was deployed. Aegis BMD, aegis ships which have BMD capability, is participated BMDS(Ballistic Missile Defense System) as a sea based BMD. And AN/SPY-1D will be replaced by AMDR(Air & Missile Defense Radar), advanced anti-air radar system to defend effectively against increased ballistic missiles threat from DDG-51 Flight III. In this paper, development status and technical characteristics of each type of aegis ships are researched and characteristics of AMDR are surveyed and described.
