Features: This book is compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" teaching materials of the National Defense Science and Technology Industry Commission. It systematically and comprehensively introduces the basic knowledge and analytical methods of torpedo navigation mechanics. The book is divided into eight chapters, covering topics such as the dynamics and kinematics models of torpedoes, special considerations in torpedo modeling, grouping of spatial motion equations of torpedoes, maneuverability of longitudinal motion, maneuverability of lateral motion, torpedo guidance trajectories, underwater target tracking of torpedoes, and simulation of torpedo guidance systems. To facilitate reader learning, the book provides multiple sets of practical simulation source programs. This book serves as a professional textbook for undergraduate students in the fields of Weapon Systems and Launching Engineering and Automation. It can also be referenced by faculty and students in related disciplines, as well as engineering technicians engaged in the research and development of underwater weapons and autonomous underwater vehicles.
