CRUISE MISSILE-SURFACE EFFECT CRAFT (CMSEC) Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC B60V1/08 F42B17/00 B64C3/00 

FIELD: rocket technics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to long range cruise missiles. Cruise missile-surface effect craft (CMSEC) consists of a housing, wings, aerodynamic flight controls, a cruise engine, a antenna of scanning, target search and guidance, an altimeter and a warhead. Housing and wings are made in the form of a “flying wing” with large square and average length of chord of the carrying surface able to fly with and without the use of the “surface effect”. “Flying wing” housing is folded as a harmonica along the longitudinal axis of symmetry of the missile with controlled folding degree. Cruise engine is designed able to operate with adjustment in the ranges of subsonic and supersonic velocities and is located inside a hinge of folding segments of the housing. CMSEC can have more than one cruise engine operating in the same mode or intended for different ranges of velocities with partial overlapping the ranges, operating with tuning simultaneously in the overlapped range and separately, each in its range, with the possibility of multiple alternation of their operation. At least one cruise engine can be detached from the CMSEC. Formed after separation of an engine cavity is used as part of a straight-jet engine. Elements of the antenna of scanning, target search and guidance are arranged along the perimeter of the “flying wing” housing as elements of a phased antenna array with circular mirror operating in passive and active modes.

EFFECT: invention allows increasing the flight range, the killability, compactness while storage and transportation.
