Abstract

The guided missiles and decoy systems that have been developed have been likened to a spear and shield. When a new attack system appears, another defense system is developed, and the attack system is once again upgraded to neutralize it. Now, due to the limitations of the decoy system, guided weapons have become the main force of both the defense and attack systems. Also, these systems have been expanded to use Space systems as a means of defending against a guided weapon system that is too fast for terrestrial-based systems. Induced weapon systems started at the sub-sonic level, and have become so important that their speeds have become super-sonic and hyper-sonic. The concept of Space has been included in the range of guided missiles, and satellite systems have become essential elements of guided missiles. Focusing on the correlation between the guided missile system and the satellite system, we analyze the characteristics of modern guided munitions and the direction of development of the guided weapons system.

유도무기체계는 기만체계와 함께 창과 방패로 비유되며 발전을 해왔다. 새로운 공격체계가 나타나면 이에 대한 방어체계가 개발되고, 다시 이것을 무력화하기 위한 공격체계가 개발되어 왔다. 이제는 기만체계의 한계로 인해, 유도무기가 공격체계 뿐만 아니라, 방어체계의 주력이 되었다. 또한, 너무빠른 유도무기체계를 방어하기 위한 방법으로 우주공간의 체계를 이용하는 방식으로 확대 되어졌다. 유도무기체계는 아음속 수준에서 시작하여 초음속, 그리고 극초음속으로 발전하여 속도가 유도무기의 한 분야가 되어버릴 정도로 중요한 요소가 되었다. 우주공간이라는 개념이 유도탄전의 범위에 포함이 되었고, 위성체계가 유도탄전의 필수요소가 되어 버렸다. 이러한 유도무기체계와 위성체계와의 상관성을 중심으로 현대 유도탄전의 특징과 유도무기체계의 발전방향에 대해 분석해 보도록 한다.
