In this study, the dynamic modeling, guidance, and control of a missile with two relatively rotating parts are dealt with. The two parts of the missile are connected to each other by means of a roller bearing. In the first part of the study, the governing differential equations of motion of the mentioned missile are derived. Then, regarding the relative rotation between the bodies, the aerodynamic model of the missile is constructed by means of the Missile Datcom software available in TÜ / BiTAK-SAGE. After obtaining the required aerodynamic stability derivatives using the generated aerodynamic data, the necessary transfer functions are determined based on the equations of motion of the missile. Next, the guidance laws that are considered in this study are formulated. Here, the Linear Homing Guidance and the Parabolic Homing Guidance laws are introduced as alternatives to the Proportional Navigation Guidance law. On this occasion, the spatial derivation of the Proportional Navigation Guidance law is also done. Afterwards, the roll, pitch and yaw autopilots are designed using the determined transfer functions. As the roll autopilot is constructed to regulate the roll angle of the front body of the missile which is the controlled part, the pitch and yaw autopilots are designed to realize the command signals generated by the guidance laws. The guidance commands are in the form of either the lateral acceleration components or the flight path angles of the missile. Then, the target kinematics is modeled for a typical surface target. As a complementary part of the work, the design of a target state estimator is made as a first order fading memory filter. Finally, the entire guidance and control system is built by integrating all the models mentioned above. Using the entire system model, the computer simulations are carried out using the Matlab-Simulink software and the proposed guidance laws are compared with the Proportional Navigation Guidance law. The comparison is repeated for a selected single-body missile as well. Consequently, the simulation results are discussed and the study is evaluated.
