The study of this course is to ensure adoption of procedures and methods for problem solving related to aircraft armament calculations. Students will be capable of independently study aircraft rocket, bomber and firearms armament elements in order to obtain maximum effectiveness for the given conditions of application for each of these types of aircraft weapons. Particular attention will be faced towards development trends of modern aircraft armament.
By mastering of the course curriculum student obtains following subject - specific skills: - thorough knowledge and understanding of different types of aircraft weapons and their application - calculation of air weapons characteristics and possibility of their integration into the aircraft with the use of scientific methods and procedures - linking basic knowledge in mathematics, programming, mechanics and fluid mechanics and their application in design and calculation of aviation weapons and its integration;
-Introduction to aircraft armament field -Division and classification-Historical development-Development trends- Aircraft bomber armament - Determining the actual coordinates of the aim-Aerodynamic integration of bombs, carriers and aircraft - Underslung load influence on aircraft characteristics-Aircraft underslung load removal calculations- Trajectory stabilization-Determination of forces and moments on the underslung loads-Parachutes and braking devices-Aircraft missile systems-The basic components of missiles and their arrangement-Structure calculations and structure types-Slender bodies aerodynamic characteristics-Aerodynamic interference-Steering elements design features-Stability derivatives-Damping of the pitching and rolling-Firearms-Definition and division of firearms-The basic components and mechanisms-Determination of forces and loads-Dynamics and shock in the automatic mechanisms, equipment and parts-Existing solutions of integration-Depreciation recoil force in accordance with the construction of aircraft-Connections in aircraft- container system.
