ABSTRACT:
A missile defence system for guiding a sub-projectile to intercept and destroy a target includes a radar tracker to acquire and track the target, predictor means for determining the predicted track of the target, and a guided projectile for being guided onto a rear reciprocal track of the target. The guided projectile includes an optical tracker for acquiring and tracking the target at relatively small distances and a sub-projectile for being guided onto the line of sight connecting the optical tracker and the target thereby to intercept and destroy the target.
