We study a differential pursuit game in a system dynamically described by a linear functional differential equation. The coefficients of the equation are closed linear operators acting in Hilbert spaces. The operator at the derivative of state depends on the current time and is, generally speaking, not invertible. Our main assumption is a restriction imposed on the characteristic operator pencil of the equation on a ray of the real positive semiaxis. The solutions of the equation are represented with the help of the formula of variation of constants in which the effect of delay is taken into account as a result of summation of shift-type operators. To establish conditions under which the dynamic vector of the system approaches a cylindrical terminal set, we use constraints imposed on the support functionals of two sets determined by the behaviors of the pursuer and evader. We also present an example of differential game in a pseudoparabolic system described by a partial functional-differential equation.
