GUIDED MISSILE WITH CONTROL PROGRAMME INPUT DEVICE Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC F42B15/01 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: missile includes body, electronic control equipment and control programme unit. Control programme unit is made in the form of programmable electronic micro assembly arranged in control equipment and electrically connected to two pairs of contact surfaces formed on nose part of controlled missile body. Each of contact surfaces is electrically isolated from each other and from missile body. Nose part of missile body is arranged in inner cavity of contact device containing body, two pairs of spring-loaded blade contacts and transverse split ring with straight-line sections, which is fixed in housing of contact device after blade contacts. Straight-line sections of split ring are located in transverse slots made on outer surface of nose part of missile to contact surfaces. In inner surface of housing of contact device there formed are longitudinal projections which are equally spaced as to angular coordinate and which are arranged in mating longitudinal slots made on outer surface of nose part of missile body so that each of blade contacts of the device is aligned with the appropriate contact surface of nose part of missile. Distance from longitudinal axis of missile to working surface of each of blade contacts of the device is less than distance from longitudinal missile axis to contact surfaces of missile.

EFFECT: higher input reliability of control programmes.
