Microprocessor-based intelligent weapon control systems

Abstract

This paper discusses microprocessor-based missile-borne and ship-borne weapon control systems. A microprocessor-based advanced missile guidance and control system is first discussed. Then, the structure, function, and hardware organization of a ship-borne weapon control system is presented. The missileborne and ship-borne weapon control systems are implemented with distributed microcomputers and microprocessors which integrate all the sensors and weapons.
