摘要： An optical assembly for high-G application includes an optical element formed from a brittle material. A rigid frame with a channel surrounds the outer diameter region of the optical element. A compliant material fills the space between the rigid frame and the outer diameter region of the optical element to prevent physical contact between the rigid frame and optical element during a high-G event.

摘要： The present invention relates to a missile or aircraft with a hierarchical, modular, closed-loop flow control system and more particularly to aircraft or missile with a flow control system for enhanced aerodynamic control, maneuverability and stabilization. The present invention further relates to a method of operating the flow control system.Various embodiments of the flow control system of the present invention involve different elements including flow sensors, active flow control device or activatable flow effectors and logic devices with closed loop control architecture. The sensors of these various embodiments are used to estimate or determine flow conditions on the various surfaces of a missile or aircraft. The active flow control device or activatable flow effectors of these various embodiments create on-demand flow disturbances, preferably micro-disturbances, at different points along the various aerodynamic surfaces of the missile or aircraft to achieve a desired stabilization or maneuverability effect. The logic devices are embedded with a hierarchical control structure allowing for rapid, real-time control at the flow surface.

摘要： Embodiments include active protection systems and methods for an aerial platform. An onboard system includes one or more radar modules, detects aerial vehicles within a threat range of the aerial platform, and determines if any of the plurality of aerial vehicles are an aerial threat. The onboard system also determines an intercept vector to the aerial threat, communicates the intercept vector to an eject vehicle, and causes the eject vehicle to be ejected from the aerial platform to intercept the aerial threat. The eject vehicle includes a rocket motor to accelerate the eject vehicle along an intercept vector, alignment thrusters to rotate a longitudinal axis of the eject vehicle to substantially align with the intercept vector, and divert thrusters to divert the eject vehicle in a direction substantially perpendicular to the intercept vector. The eject vehicle activates at least one of the alignment thrusters responsive to the intercept vector.

摘要： A method for steering solid propellant ballistic vehicles during powered flight which eliminates the requirement for cutoff control by allowing simultaneous fuel depletion and velocity-to-be-gained, V.sub.G, nulling. The vehicle booster is steered along a velocity trajectory of length equal to the remaining velocity capability, V.sub.CAP, which results in a fuel-inefficient trajectory. The trajectory is divided basically into three phases--an exit phase, a fuel-depletion guidance (FDG) phase and a short phase of constant attitude thrusting just prior to final stage burnout. For the exit phase the launch azimuth and the pitch-over magnitude can be varied from their usual fuel-efficient values. During fuel-depletion guidance the additional degree of freedom is the angle, .theta., between V.sub.G and the desired thrust direction, U.sub.S, where: ##EQU1## a.sub.T being the sensed acceleration vector.
