Download or read book Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicle written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2024-06-20 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicle A multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRV) is an exoatmospheric ballistic missile payload containing several warheads, each capable of being aimed to hit a different target. The concept is almost invariably associated with intercontinental ballistic missiles carrying thermonuclear warheads, even if not strictly being limited to them. An intermediate case is the multiple reentry vehicle (MRV) missile which carries several warheads which are dispersed but not individually aimed. All nuclear-weapon states except Pakistan and North Korea are currently confirmed to have deployed MIRV missile systems. Israel is suspected to possess or be in the process of developing MIRVs.

Download or read book Modeling MIRV Footprint Constraints in the Weapons Assignment Model written by Elliot T. Fair and published by . This book was released on 1997-03-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: US Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) is developing a new linear programming model called the Weapons Assignment Model (WAM) to perform weapons assignment for the Strategic Integrated Operations Plan (SIOP). One of the major improvements WAM will have over its predecessor is the ability to include Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Vehicle (MIRV) footprinting constraints in the optimization process. In order to include MIRV footprint constraints in WAM, a methodology is needed to model the MIRV footprints in a manner that is consistent with the limitations of linear programming Two techniques for modeling MIRV footprints were developed. The first, Geometric Approximation (GA), uses a carefully positioned and sized ellipse on the earth's surface to model the capabilities of a Post Boost Vehicle (PBV) to disperse MIRVs. Any combination of targets within the ellipse is considered to constitute a feasible targeting plan for a missile. The second model is called Energy Space Transformation (EST). This model scales the distance each MIRV is displaced from the missile aimpoint to account for the PBV energy required to maneuver for each MIRV. The sum of the maneuvering energy for each MIRV is used to calculate the fraction of the PBV energy required to strike a particular combination of targets. Any combination where the fraction is less than one is considered feasible. These two models were tested and verified using 120 missile sorties. Both models were approximately 85 percent accurate.

This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors assess alternatives for a next-generation intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) across a broad set of potential characteristics and situations. They use the current Minuteman III as a baseline to develop a framework to characterize alternative classes of ICBMs, assess the survivability and effectiveness of possible alternatives, and weigh those alternatives against their cost.

Download or read book StarBriefs 2001 written by and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 805 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation probably looks like one of the craziest things a human being could spend his or her time on. Yet nobody would wonder at someone taking a short walk every day - after twenty five years that person would have covered a surprisingly long distance. This is exactly the story behind this list, which appeared first as a few pages within the directory StarGuides (or whatever name it had at that time) and as a distinct sister publication since 1990. The idea behind this dictionary is to offer astronomers and related space scientists practical assistance in decoding the numerous abbreviations, acronyms, contractions and symbols which they might encounter in all aspects of the vast range of their professional activities, including traveling. Perhaps it is a bit paradoxical, but if scientists quickly grasp the meaning of an acronym solely in their own specific discipline, they will probably encounter more difficulties when dealing with adjacent fields. It is for this purpose that this dictionary might be most often used. Scientists might also refer to this compilation in order to avoid identifying a project by an acronym which already has too many meanings or confused definitions.
