Abstract

See full text

A seeker head for target tracking missiles having an optical seeker de-coupled from the movements of the missile has a non-rotating platform (16), which is mounted in the missile for rotation about pitch and yaw axes about an origin (30), the platform carrying the optical seeker. A missile-fixed torquer assembly (74) for generating toques about mutually orthogonal axes (48,52) directly engages the platform (16). An inertial sensor unit (26) is mounted on the platform (16), the signals from the inertial sensor unit (26) being applied to the torquer assembly (74) to de-couple the platform (16) from the movements of the missile. A particular way of arranging the inertial sensorunit (26) and a particular design of the torquer assembly are described.
