Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of stealth design of cruise missiles, and in particular relates to a lateral broadband stealth design method for a cruise missile body. Background Art
[0002] Stealth technology, also known as low-detectable technology or target characteristic signal control technology, is a technology that controls or reduces the characteristic signals of weapon systems such as radar, infrared, light, electricity, and magnetism, making it difficult for enemy detection systems to detect / intercept, identify, track, and attack by enemy firepower systems. With the rapid development of radar detection technology and the continuous upgrading of anti-missile defense systems, the battlefield survivability of aircraft equipment such as cruise missiles and drones has been greatly threatened, seriously affecting the effective combat strike capability of the equipment. Stealth design and processing of equipment can effectively reduce the probability of equipment being detected by enemy detection systems, and can greatly improve the battlefield survivability of equipment.
[0003] Cruise missiles are a new type of cutting-edge equipment that has developed rapidly in recent years. They can be used as attack equipment to achieve deep damage to the enemy, and can also be used as an aerial relay combat platform, which can effectively expand the combat radius of small cruise missiles, drones and other equipment. However, traditional cruise missile equipment lacks stealth design, resulting in strong radar scattering characteristics, which can easily be discovered and locked by enemy radar detection systems when fighting against the enemy. Large-sized cruise missiles have a larger length and caliber. Compared with traditional small cruise missiles, they have larger physical dimensions and stronger radar scattering characteristics, and are in urgent need of strong stealth processing. However, there is currently little related research work in China, and there is a lack of effective low RCS stealth design methods for large-sized cruise missiles. Summary of the invention
