Abstract

This paper focuses on analysis and evaluation of midcourse guidance algorithm for long-range air-to-air missile.In order to improve flight performance in both horizontal and vertical planes and make the evaluation results more reliable and comprehensive,a hybrid midcourse guidance method based on optimal control theory is developed,and evaluated the proposed midcourse guidance method on two aspects of flight and combat performances is evaluated.The evaluation results show that the proposed midcourse guidance method is superior in attainable area,maximum attacking area,flight period and final energy.
