Aerodynamic and trajectory characteristics of a typical mortar projectile with a deflectable nose

Deflectable nose control is a new trajectory correction method. In this paper, the aerodynamic and trajectory characteristics of a typical mortar projectile with a deflectable nose are investigated with respect to its flight conditions. Using the method of wind tunnel testing, the aerodynamic coeffi...
