Цитата Raytheon Company successfully completed a passive seeker test designed for a Tomahawk Block IV cruise missile using company-funded independent research and development investment. The captive flight test, using a modified Tomahawk Block IV missile nose cone, demonstrated that Raytheon's advanced, next-generation; multi-function processor can enable the cruise missile to navigate to and track moving targets emitting radio frequency signals. For the test, the nosecone of a Tomahawk Block IV missile was equipped with passive antennas integrated with Raytheon's new modular, multi-mode processor, and fitted to a T-39 aircraft. Flying at subsonic speed and at varying altitudes, the aircraft simulated a Tomahawk flight regime. The passive seeker and multi-function processor successfully received numerous electronic signals from tactical targets in a complex, high density electromagnetic environment...
"очумелые ручки" америкосы испытывают пассивную ГСН и бортовой вычислитель( комп./процессор) для модерна "топора" блок4. Испытания прходили на базе самолета Т-39, который симулировал полет КР на разных высотах, ГСН успешно принимала, процессор селектировал/распозновал РЛ излучения..и т.д.
