Abstract

Missile systems must acquire and intercept high performance aircraft over wide ranges of velocity, altitude and angle of attack. This paper puts forward a SIMSCRIPT simulation model for an aircraft and SAM (surface to air missile) encounter. Since SAM locks onto its target, aircraft evasive actions such as Electronic Counter Measures (ECM), and aerobatic maneuvers may not be effective; however an aircraft may evade destruction by exhausting the missile's fuel supply. It is demonstrated by the simulation that as aircraft speed increases, the mean kill time is increased and the number of aircraft which escape also increases. Aircraft treated here may conform to the specifications of SR-71 Black Bird and F-14A Fighter.
