Missile Guidance - GOT Systems

GOT Systems

In every GOT system there are three subsystems:

  • Target tracker
  • Missile tracker
  • Guidance computer

The way these three subsystems are distributed between the missile and the launcher result in two different categories:

  • Remote Control Guidance: The guidance computer is on the launcher. The target tracker is also placed on the launching platform.
  • Homing Guidance: The guidance computers are in the missile and in the target tracker.

Famous quotes containing the word systems:

    The geometry of landscape and situation seems to create its own systems of time, the sense of a dynamic element which is cinematising the events of the canvas, translating a posture or ceremony into dynamic terms. The greatest movie of the 20th century is the Mona Lisa, just as the greatest novel is Gray’s Anatomy.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    Our little systems have their day;
    They have their day and cease to be:
    They are but broken lights of thee,
    And thou, O Lord, art more than they.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
