ABSTRACT:
A missile has a body with a substantially circular nose opening therein, and a ceramic radome sized to cover the nose opening. A compliant metallic circular transition element is disposed structurally between the radome and the body. The transition element includes an elongated compliant arm region and a crossbar region positioned adjacent to the radome such that a lower margin surface of the radome rests against an upper side of the crossbar region. A brazed butt joint is formed between the lower margin surface of the radome and the upper side of the crossbar region of the transition element. A second brazed lap joint is formed between the vehicle body and the elongated compliant arm of the transition element.
