ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method are disclosed enabling to register vectors respectively representative of directed energy pointing direction and targeted object pointing direction to allow rapid re-targeting boresight alignment transfer of a space-based neutral particle beam to targeted ballistic missile trajectories independently of relative reference frame vector measurement uncertainty arising from platform vibration and, among other things, space-noise.
