CONTENTS

 1) About Cruise Missile.


 3) General design of cruise missile.
 4) Categorization.
 5) Guidance system and it’s type.
 6) Future advancement in cruise
missile: BrahMos cruise missiles
 7) Advantages and Disadvantages.
CRUISE MISILE

 Have 8.5-foot (2.61-meter) wingspan


 Powered by turbofan engines
 Can fly 500 to 1,000 miles (805 to
1,610 km) depending on the
configuration.
 Deliver a 1,000-pound (450-kg) high-
explosive bomb to a precise location of
the target.
CRUISE MISSILE
General design

Cruise missile generally consist of


1. Guidance system,
2. Payload, and
3. Propulsion system, housed in an airframe
with small wings.
4. Payload usually consist of a conventional
warhead or a nuclear warhead.
5. Cruise missile is propelled by a jet
engine.
General design
CATEGORIES
 • Cruise missiles can be categorized by
 1. size
 2. speed(subsonic/supersonic),
 3. range, or
 4. whether launched from:
 i. land,
 ii. air,
 iii. ship,
 iv. submarine.
GUIDANCE SYSTEM

• The purpose of a guidance system is to


direct the missile to target .
• Use of an automatic target recognition
(ATR) algorithm/device in the guidance
system increases accuracy of the missile.
TYPES OF GUIDANCE
SYSTEM
 Inertial navigation system
 TERCOM (Terrain Contour Matching)
 DSMAC (Digital Scene-Mapping Area
Correlator)
 Satellite navigation
SATELLITE NAVIGATION

• Using a satellite positioning system, such as


GPS.
• Satellite navigation systems are precise and
cheap.
• If the satellites are interfered ten, the
satellite navigation system becomes inoperable.
• The GPS-based navigation is useful in a
conflict with a technologically unsophisticated
adversary.
FUTURE ADVANCEMENT
BrahMos cruise missile
 On June 12/2001, the BrahMos cruise missile took off
from its launched at Chandipur-on-a- Sea, Orissa, and
reached a speed of up to mach 2, it becomes the first
ever supersonic cruise missile that used liquid ram jet
technology.
 The missile, with range of 280 k, weighted three tones.
 The BeahMos will not carry nuclear warhead because
it is an anti ship missile that can be launched from
ships, submarines, aircrafts and land
 The BrahMos is a product of an INDO-RASSIAN joint
venture known by the same name.
BRAHMOS MISSILE
ADVANTAGES

• The big advantage of the cruise missile


is its smallness and cost.
• Its small size also improved the
weapon’s chances of penetration.
• The map matching system (TERCOM) is
combined with an inertial navigational
system in a system called TAINS. This not
only gets the cruise missile to its target
but also with an high accuracy.
DISADVANTAGES

• The lack of a human pilot means you


can't re-use the thing, whereas you can
get multiple missions out of a piloted
aircraft.
• Their low and slow flight means they
can be engaged by a much wider variety
of systems.
• The missiles aren't always accurate,
they're expensive..
Thank You
