METHOD OF LAUNCHING A PROJECTILE FROM AN AIRCRAFT AND METHOD OF GUIDING SUCH PROJECTILE AFTER ITS LAUNCHING

摘要

Method of launching a projectile (2) with a trajectory (6; 93) which is compound, free (94) then retarded (96) against a target (3) from an aircraft (1) in which method, before launch, at various approach positions (5, 51) the target (3) is identified, the distance from the target (3) to an anticipated virtual trajectory (6) of the projectile (2) is calculated and the projectile (2) is launched (T1, T2) just after the said distance has passed through a minimum, in which, for validating the distance calculation, only the trajectories (6) exhibiting an angle of impact (A) on the ground reaching a predetermined value (A0) are taken into account.
