https://lnkd.in/e6XXTAz9 The mental image suggested by many descriptions of this maneuvering is of a speedboat weaving its way around obstacles. But, at such high speeds, changing the direction of a missile requires very large forces, and generating such forces would further increase drag and can significantly reduce the speed and range of the weapon. These drawbacks limit how much maneuvering hypersonic missiles can achieve in practice while still reaching useful ranges. What remains is perfection of the SCRAMJETengine which can begin as a standard turbojet go to ramjet then scramjet within the same flight body. GEhoneywell currently has the most promising example . When this utility is mastered manuverability will be excellent because the vehicle can slow to turn then accelerate again repeatedly as will issues with communication and guidance. Newer models of boostglide feature solid fuel start restarting for next generation but that still leaves the other emergent issues. and startstop on solidfuel motors has not been reliable. BUT The real motivation behind the expensive scramble is that a true Scramjet hypersonic weapon will likely make current Mutuall Assured Destruction obsolete. Current intercepts of boost Glides need to be achieved in the boost phaze at the top of their arc _ scramjet will have constant manuversbility all at atmospheric levels AND utilize highly compressed atmospheric oxygen as the main fuel source as it is created.

The handing over of a project is such a dangerous moment, that it’s like having a missile fired at you. Don’t agree to anything until you’ve had a chance to look at it. There are two types of missile - the ballistic missile and the cruise missile. The ballistic missile is launched and you pick it up on your radar screen. This is like picking up a project that has a deadline, a budget, a target that is completely impossible. The cruise missile is the sneaky one. It gets launched somewhere and suddenly, out of nowhere, it seems, it lands in your lap. An example of cruise missile is when your at a meeting, and somebody asks you “How long do you think that would take” If you’re not careful, you’ll think up an answer, and if you’re not really, really careful, you could end up opening your mouth and making a commitment. The number one reason why projects fail is that they were never actually possible in the first place. If this has peaked your interest, then read Fergus O'Connel's book "Fast Projects" or alternatively you can watch the video I've created, that presents the learning in a fun whiteboard animation story. https://lnkd.in/dF2hVFAN

🇵🇰GIDS ‘Taimoor’ Air-Launched Cruise Missile | The GIDS ‘Taimoor’ Air-Launched Cruise Missile is a versatile weapon designed for both air-to-ground and anti-ship roles. It boasts a range of 290 km, with launch altitudes between 2,000 to 25,000 ft and cruise altitudes from 500 to 20,000 ft. The missile is equipped with multiple warhead types, including blast fragmentation, penetration, and pre-fragmentation. It features advanced guidance systems, including an imaging infrared seeker for precision targeting, and can operate in challenging environments with terrain-hugging and sea-skimming capabilities.

🚀INFOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS ✍️Here is a summary of the provided infographic on Russia's new missile, Oreshnik: Question: Describe the Oreshnik missile system and its capabilities based on the provided infographic. Solution Process: The infographic depicts the Oreshnik missile as a two-stage intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM). The first stage is a large cylindrical booster, and the second stage houses the payload. The key feature is its Multiple Independently targetable Reentry Vehicle (MIRV) capability. After reaching its trajectory, the missile releases six warheads, each capable of striking a separate target. The infographic also states that the missile's maximum speed is over Mach 10 (12,300 km/h; 7,610 mph; 3.40 km/s). The date "November 29, 2004" suggests this is a historical depiction of the missile's design or a planned specification at that time. Answer: The Oreshnik is a two-stage IRBM with a MIRV payload, capable of deploying six independently targetable warheads at speeds exceeding Mach 10. The infographic dates this information to November 29, 2004. Key Concepts/Tips: - IRBM (Intermediate-Range Ballistic Missile): Missiles with a range exceeding 1,000 km but less than 5,500 km. - MIRV (Multiple Independently targetable Reentry Vehicle): A technology that allows a single missile to carry and deploy multiple warheads, each aimed at a different target. This significantly increases the destructive potential of a single missile launch. 🚀- Mach Number: A unit of speed representing the ratio of an object's speed to the speed of sound. Mach 10 means ten times the speed of sound.🔥

The new #Russian #Oreshnik #MRBM https://lnkd.in/g_6xjS2v. Russias newest MRBM is the Oreshnik medium-range #ballistic #missile. It relies on several innovations of its predecessors, namely: RS-24 Yars https://lnkd.in/gXAAMd3G RS-26 Rubezh https://lnkd.in/g5ywcFkp RS-27 Zyb https://lnkd.in/gZA6MbV RSM-56 Bulava https://lnkd.in/gqSmzMyx Although the name Oreshnik is the “prototype” name, the system is better known as the #Kedr missile. #Russia often uses several names for its systems. It contains 6 munitions, each containing 6 #MIRV ‘s or #MRV ‘s https://lnkd.in/gR8NieGS Usually #nuclear armed, the ones used in #Dnipro were inert (#Decoy s?) or #convential #armed. Although on the video we didn’t see any explosions, it’s possible the projectiles buried deep underground before exploding, but currently there are no #BDA Battle Damage Assessments of #satellite pictures. #Ukraine is known to have substantial amounts of infrastructures buried underground. Reaching a speed of #Mach 10-11, the #kinetic #energy of the 36! Projectiles would already create considerable damage. So even using already existing decoys is possible, rather than having to redesign and develop conventional explosive armed MIRV’s capable of dealing with the high temperatures they would encounter during flight. This missile would be a serious adversary to the #US made #THAAD interception system, and would require several systems to even have a chance to intercept every sub-munition. Ad around a billion dollars / system, this would require astronomical investments to protect key sites from this weapon. So we are yet again on the point of #finance, or #financial #attrition. Just like with low cost, #commercial #available #drones, costing a mere 500$/drone, the #interception costs considerable more. Being launched from a road-mobile #TEL (#Transporter #Erector #Launcher) or possibly even a Rail-mobile TEL https://lnkd.in/gA27GE-i it’s very hard to pre-emptive strike the launch sites. The RS-27 was even developed as a #Submarine launched Ballisitic Missile #SLBM so if it shares enough design elements it could later be adapted for submarine use creating even more difficulties for a pre-emotive strike. #Topol #TopolM #Yars #Ярс #SS29 #SS27Mod2 #Frontier #Boundary #Rubezh #Рубеж #SSX31 #Zyb #Зыбь #SSN6 #Serb #4K10 #Ripple #Kyiv #ICBM #RS24 #RS26 #RS27 #Орешник #Hazel #HazelTree #RS12M2 #RSM56 #Bulava #Булава #SSN30 #Mace #3M30 #3K30 #Borei Must watch 🔽🚀 https://lnkd.in/g7Rur3AM https://lnkd.in/gRXPMcXx https://lnkd.in/gkrai6fB. https://lnkd.in/g68Jk_cK

Hypersonic missile skipping in atmosphere - A technological advancements Hypersonic missile skipping in the atmosphere refers to a technique used by some hypersonic vehicles to extend their range and evade detection. Here's how it works:- 1. Re-entry: A hypersonic missile re-enters the Earth's atmosphere at incredibly high speeds (Mach 5+). 2. Skipping: Instead of following a traditional ballistic trajectory, the missile uses its speed and altitude to "skip" off the atmosphere, using the air as a kind of "trampoline". 3. Lift: The missile generates lift by using its shape and angle of attack to deflect the air downward, creating an upward force. 4. Glide: The missile glides along the atmosphere, using its momentum to stay aloft, and can travel significant distances. 5. Repeat: The process can be repeated multiple times, extending the missile's range and making it harder to intercept. This technique allows hypersonic missiles to:- 1. Extend range 2. Evade detection 3. Avoid interception 4. Increase survivability Some difficulties in achieving this important technique:- 1. Atmospheric conditions affect skipping performance 2. Missile design and materials must withstand extreme heat and stress 3. Skipping can be unpredictable and difficult to control Countries like China, Russia, and the US are developing hypersonic missiles that can employ this technique, making them a significant concern for national security.
