ADAPTATION OF LAND-BASED GUIDED MISSILES TO USE FROM SHIPS

The article considers the possibility of expanding the combat capabilities of the Navy to defeat coastal targets through the use of guided missiles developed for the ground forces. A high degree of interspecific unification will significantly reduce the time and material costs of work on such adaptation. Placement of guided missiles in transport and launch containers ensures their compatibility with standard launchers, and retrofitting mass-produced guided missiles with a launch stage, with minimal changes in the design of the projectile, significantly reduces the temperature and force impact on the carrier. It is shown that the use of unified design solutions makes it possible to implement both vertical launch and launch at low elevation angles, providing at the time of launching the main engine the spatial position of the projectile necessary for further work according to the standard order of work.
