SOME FEATURES OF THE GAME BETWEEN THE SUPERSONIC ASM AND THE COUNTERATTACK AMM

Abstract

An advanced RF surface-to-air missile (SAM) system is accompanied by ground radars, missiles, and launchers, which are very vulnerable to air-to-surface missiles (ASMs). This paper studies the threat of ASMs and an IR homing anti-missile-missile (AMM) system which defends the SAM site. A supersonic highly maneuverable ASM is assumed and the performance required for this counterattack AMM is briefly studied. The interception problem between the ASM and the AMM is considered as a game and some features of the game are discussed and an approach is explained.
