Deployable projectile

摘要

A method for protecting a second location against a first projectile fired from a first location at the second location. The method including: firing at least one second projectile toward the first projectile; and increasing a footprint of the second projectile via a deployment from the second projectile to prevent the first projectile from striking the second location. The method can also include detonating a charge upon contact of the first projectile with the deployment; timing an operation of the second projectile to increase an amount of damage and/or redirection of the first projectile; tracking the first projectile and guiding the second projectile to intercept the first projectile based on the tracking and/or the various launching platforms so as to increase the likelihood of protection against the first projectile.
