Many-vs-Many Missile Guidance via Virtual Targets
Many-vs-Many Missile Guidance via Virtual Targets
A recent article published on arXiv introduces an innovative missile guidance method that leverages virtual targets generated by a trajectory predictor (F1). Traditionally, missile defense systems assign interceptors directly to physical targets, following a one-to-one guidance approach (F2). In contrast, the proposed strategy centers on creating virtual trajectories that anticipate the movements of targets, enabling a many-to-many missile guidance framework (F3). This predictive approach aims to enhance the effectiveness of missile defense by improving interception accuracy and adaptability (F4). By focusing on virtual targets rather than fixed physical ones, the method potentially offers a more dynamic and responsive defense mechanism. This shift represents a significant advancement over conventional missile guidance techniques. The article highlights the potential of trajectory prediction to transform missile interception strategies in future defense systems.
