Design of Electromagnetic Rail Powered Missile for Penetrating Missile Defense System

Abstract

Replacing chemical propellant and using electric power that generate the muzzle power to propel the rocket is done since 1846. There were productive research conducted to achieve velocity of 2000-3000 m/s, which cannot achieved using conventional propellant. These velocities are capable of penetrating the armor vehicles and high-density materials.Research is conducted to increase the velocity and stealth technology to penetrate missile defense system. However, the advanced technology capable of detecting from small drone to high velocity missile. This research give the conceptual design of the two-staged missile capable penetrating the defense shield using only kinetic energy by unconventional propulsion system. One stage act as the prey to the incoming missile and other system enter the shield with its velocity higher than any other interceptor missile. This missile uses Lorentz force to propel the projectile towards the target.
