  1. Cruise missile

    A cruise missile is an unmanned self-propelled guided vehicle that sustains flight through aerodynamic lift for most of its flight path and whose primary mission is to place an ordnance or special payload on a target. Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large warhead over long distances with high precision.

  2. The Physics and Hype of Hypersonic Weapons

    Jet engines also power cruise missiles—maneuverable and pilotless aircraft, the fastest of which can achieve supersonic speeds. Meanwhile hypersonic gliders continued to soar—and drop.

  3. Cruise Missile Basics

    Cruise missiles are capable of being launched from multiple ground, air, sea and submarine platforms. Both fighter and long-range bomber aircraft are capable of carrying and launching cruise missiles. [5] On the ground, cruise missiles are most commonly launched by road-mobile systems due to the inherent advantages of mobility, but they can ...

  4. BrahMos: Everything you need to know about the cruise missile system

    BrahMos is technically a ramjetpowered supersonic cruise missile with a solid propellant booster that can be launched from land-based canisters, submarines, ships and now aircraft. It travels at speeds of Mach 2.8 to 3.0 but is being upgraded in the future to travel at speeds faster than Mach 5.0. for the hypersonic variant.

  12. BRAHMOS Supersonic Cruise Missile

    Compared to existing state-of-the-art subsonic cruise missiles, BRAHMOS has: 3 times more velocity; 2.5 to 3 times more flight range; 3 to 4 times more seeker range; 9 times more kinetic energy . The missile has identical configuration for land, sea and sub-sea platforms and uses a Transport Launch Canister (TLC) for transportation, storage and ...

  13. PDF Hypersonic Boost-glide Systems and Hypersonic Cruise Missiles

    Hypersonic missiles generally combine the abilities to perform pro-longed flight at speeds of Mach 5—that is, five times the speed of sound—and beyond, and to manoeuvre in a way that enables a variable flight profile.1 There are two main types of hypersonic missile systems: hypersonic boost-glide systems and hypersonic cruise missiles (HCMs).

    An Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW) carried by a B-52 bomber Scramjet-powered hypersonic cruise missile. A hypersonic weapon is a weapon capable of travelling at hypersonic speed, defined as between 5 and 25 times the speed of sound or about 1 to 5 miles per second (1.6 to 8.0 km/s).. Below such speeds, weapons would be characterized as subsonic or supersonic, while above such speeds ...

  18. Hypersonic Weapons-Part 1: Background and Vulnerability to Missile Defenses

    systems like supersonic cruise missiles would be easier. For example, a supersonic vehicle traveling at Mach 3 would be subjected to a heating rate during its glide phase that is roughly eight times smaller than a hypersonic vehicle traveling at Mach 6, since atmospheric heating increases approximately with the cube of velocity.
