ABSTRACT:
A self destruct mechanism for an airborne projectile is provided. The projectile includes a navigation system which provides an absolute global position of the projectile. The position is compared with positions stored in memory. If the position of the projectile is determined to be acceptable, operation of the projectile continues. If the position of the projectile is unacceptable, an electronic control system initiates a self-destruct signal for the projectile.
