Abstract
This paper proposes a new guidance law to control both impact time and impact angle for a flight vehicle´s homing problem, which can be applied for an efficient salvo attack of antiship missiles or a cooperative mission of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The proposed law can lead vehicles to home on a target at a designated impact time with a prescribed impact angle. It comprises a feedback loop and an additional control command, the first to achieve the desired impact angle with zero miss distance, and the second to control the impact time. Numerical simulations demonstrate the performance of the proposed law in the accuracy of impact angle and impact time
