Development of Simulation Tools for the Analysis of Captive Flight Test Data for Imaging Infrared Missile Seekers

摘要

This paper presents new simulation tools developed for the analysis of field and captive flight test data for imaging terminal homing missile systems. The analysis of field test data is required for both simulation validation and rapid design when development of a simulation model for each target and background scenario is cost or time prohibitive. In addition, the complex problem of resolving the inevitable performance differences between simulation and field test data will be addressed.
