Corrected Trajectory Artillery Projectile
(CTAP)
(IMI)
|
IMI has developed a GPS based guided 155mm artillery
projectile which corrects its trajectory in two dimensions (range
and azimuth). The system is implemented as retrofit for existing
ammunition, with introduction of GPS/IMU guidance, navigation and
control subsystems, controlling canard winglets for aerodynamic
control. The canards and the "Pure Heart" guidance system are
deployed after the apogee point, to gain maximum range.
