Abstract

A computer-based mathematical model is developed for the estimation of assessment of damage inflicted on an aircraft due to a ground-base air defense gun. It is assumed that the aircraft is approaching the target from an arbitrary direction and does not change it's trajectory during gun firing. Dimension of aircraft and trajectory of warhead are assumed to be known. Damage to aircraft is caused due to blast as well as fragments. Aircraft is assumed to be killed if one of its vital parts has been killed.
