    Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter includes a computerized method and system for determining miss-distance between platforms. The proposed method and system make use of an electro optic sensor (e.g. camera) mounted on one of the platforms for obtaining additional data which is used for improving the accuracy of positioning data obtained from conventional positioning devices. A navigation error is calculated where the relative position of the two platforms is converted to the camera reference frame. Once the navigation error is available, it can be used to correct a measured miss-distance.

    Abstract: A counter-flying object system comprising a sensor array including at least one active sensor configured to detect and track the flying object, and a missile launcher configured to launch an interceptor to intercept the flying object, wherein upon launching of the interceptor, the sensor array is configured to determine the location of the interceptor and send said object and interceptor locations to a control system, the control system being configured to provide mission data to the interceptor based on said object and interceptor locations for guiding the interceptor toward the flying object and activating a fragmentation warhead on or in the vicinity of said flying object when a lethality criteria is met.

    Abstract: A fragmentation warhead is provided, capable of being mounted in a carrier vehicle, the warhead having a longitudinal axis. In at least one example the warhead includes a shell that extends along the longitudinal axis. The shell includes a fixed shell portion and a fragmentation portion, and defines therebetween a cavity for accommodating therein an explosive charge. The fragmentation portion includes at least one set of serially adjacent fragments in correspondingly serially contiguous relationship in the fragmentation portion and in generally helical relationship with respect to the longitudinal axis. A corresponding carrier vehicle and a corresponding missile are also provided.

    Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter includes a system and a method for launching a projectile towards a target, wherein the system comprises a control circuitry, a booster engine, and one or more thrusters adapted to be connected to the projectile and capable of being spun during launch around a longitudinal axis of the projectile, the control circuitry being operatively connected to the one or more thrusters; wherein responsive to ignition of propellant stowed in a combustion chamber of the booster engine, the booster engine causes the projectile to launch from its cell; following launch of the projectile, cause the projectile to turn at a certain rate and a certain azimuth.
