Abstract
When the new ammunition is designed, it is necessary to confirm in advance how long the target distance is depends on the shape and weight of the designed ammunition. Therefore we can use commercial software such as PRODAS to predict the target distance in the design stage. This commercial software has aerodynamic data for various ammunition shape and calculates the target range by calculating the kinetic equations of the ammunition using the aerodynamic data most similar to the designed ammunition. The ammunition for predicting the target distance through software such as PRODAS is a non-guided ammunition that has no control after launch but the glide type ammunition is guided and control ammunition. So it is predicts the state of ammunition after the launch. A new type of simulator is needed to analyze the maximum range and to verify the onboard guided and control algorithm. The simulator constructed in this paper is an optimized simulator for glide type ammunition. Unlike unmanned aircraft and guided missiles. The rotation characteristics of the ammunition are considered and the navigation initialization algorithm is applied. The constructed simulator confirmed the performance by performing maximum range analysis of glide type ammunition.
