System for protection against missiles

摘要

Multiple embodiments of a system are disclosed for defeating enemy missiles and rockets by the use of a non-lethal cloud of pellets that collide with the missile a certain distance away from the target causing premature detonation of the missile, and/or possible severe damage to the missile, and/or deflection of the missile, and/or a deformation to the ogive cones to cause a short in the fuze circuit, and/or deposition of conductive material to cause a short in the fuze circuit.

主权项

1. A non-lethal system for protecting a target against an incoming threat, comprising:
a. a sensor for sensing information about an incoming threat; b. at least one container further comprising a plurality of projectiles; and c. a propulsion system that ejects the plurality of projectiles from the at least one container, based on information obtained from the sensor; d. wherein the plurality of projectiles are ejected to intercept the incoming threat for purposes of disabling the incoming threat prior to impact with the target; and e. wherein the plurality of projectiles are ejected at a velocity that is between 50 ft/s and 150 ft/.
