Abstract

This paper presents a concept for striking distance performance improvement of the GROM/PIORUN Man-Portable Air-Defence System rocket missiles by increasing the rated diameter of the rocket missile propulsion system and its fuel charge weight. A mathematical and physical model of the GROM rocket missile was designed and its enhanced propulsion system was simulated in a computer environment. The computer simulation results were displayed on plot charts.
