Description
Missiles have become central to modern defense systems, representing the pinnacle of precision, power, and deterrence. This comprehensive course explores the foundational and advanced aspects of missile technology, combining theoretical understanding with practical applications across defense and aerospace sectors. Designed for engineering students, defense professionals, researchers, and technology enthusiasts, the course provides a thorough grounding in the principles, components, systems, and strategic roles of missiles in contemporary military operations.Participants will begin by learning about the classification and evolution of missile systems, understanding the distinctions between ballistic and cruise missiles, and exploring how guidance and control systems ensure high-precision targeting. The course delves into propulsion technologies, including solid and liquid rocket motors, turbojets, ramjets, and hypersonic propulsion. Students will explore navigation systems like INS, GPS, radar, infrared, and laser guidance, and how artificial intelligence and real-time data enhance missile capabilities.Advanced modules will focus on stealth and survivability, reentry vehicles, MIRVs, and the integration of missiles into broader defense ecosystems, including anti-missile and early warning systems. Special attention will be paid to strategic missile systems such as ICBMs and SLBMs, and regional defense solutions like Iron Dome, THAAD, and S-400.Through case studies, real-world applications, and global comparisons, learners will gain insights into the geopolitical and ethical implications of missile technology. By the end of the course, participants will have a holistic understanding of how missiles are designed, built, guided, and employed across military and space applications.
