  • Abstract
    A 3rd-order missile system is considered, and an exact solution found with the aid of the adjoint technique. The solution takes the form of an infinite power series and enables the miss distance due to noise and target manoeuvre to be calculated. An indication of missile lateral acceleration (latax) is also given.
