Developing Direction of Air Defense Electron-Magnetic Gun Based on Demand of Countering Air and Missile Threat

Abstract

With the change of air strike combat mode, appearance of new threat and the demand of the important ground protection targets toward countering air and missile threat combat objectives of air defense equipments are deeply changing, so all kinds of tactic indexes and developing trends of air defense equipment are subsequently changing. As a newly typed weapon developed importantly at home and in foreign countries air defense electromagnetic gun takes on some unique advantages such as stronger kinetic energy of gun muzzle, fasting initial velocity of projectile and feasible firing control; based on combat demand toward countering air and missile threat, focusing on the main combat objective of electromagnetic gun, the essay analyzes all kinds of defense performance of objectives and attacking specialty, predicts developing trend of electromagnetic gun, and provides theoretical reference toward development of troops weapons and equipment.
