Abstract:
Finalization of missile system requirement specifications in design phase is critical in order to achieve user’s
expectations and to avoid unexpected outcomes. This is guaranteed through well defined performance evaluation
criteria. A methodology is devised to finalize and evaluate missile sub-systems characteristics with
emphasis on its ability to meet mission specific goals. Missile system evaluation is achieved through computing
kinematic boundaries against highly agile targets. Kinematic boundaries includes minimum and maximum
launch points. These launch points are the sequel of 3-DoF missile and target engagement simulations. In order
to reduce computation time, coarse and fine search has also been introduced. Mission critical sub-systems
are identified through relative frequency analysis. Once requirements are finalized, technical challenges associated
with respective sub-systems are eliminated by suggesting efficient missile launch strategies.
