Pershing 2 simulation studies
Abstract
Pershing 2 flight simulations were performed using the U70 missile simulation program to determine (1) in the event of an accidental nozzle deflection, how fast the missile would leave its (safe) flight corridor; (2) how well the U70 aerodynamic simulation matches the actual flight data; and (3) the trajectory profiles for nine Tactical Ballistic Missile flight trajectories. Also an advanced simulation program developed by TRW, Inc. was partially converted to run on an inhouse computer.
