A missile head has a shroud which forms its tip and which can be detached in its totality during flight from the fuselage of the missile. The missile head further has a rear part, which is connected to the fuselage, and a front nose, which can be disconnected from the rear part and forms the tip. A separating device separates the rear part from the fuselage and the nose from the rear part during flight. A physically small shroud can be achieved, and damage to the fuselage of the missile by separation of the shroud can be prevented, if the nose is split into at least two parts and the separating device is prepared to split the nose into these two parts during flight.

Missile head and method for separating a shroud from a fuselage of a missile

A method for producing a mirror () from a titanium-based material by using the technique of ultraprecision machining. The mirror produced using this method has both a shape accuracy and a surface roughness in the submicrometer region. The mirror () is made from a titanium-based material having a shape accuracy and a surface roughness in the submicrometer region, whose basic shape () has a has a reflecting surface () having a surface roughness of less than 60 nm, and in particular of less than 30 nm.

A connection is described for connecting two tubular fuselage portions of a missile. The inner diameter of the rim of a first tubular fuselage portion to be connected with a second tubular fuselage portion corresponds to the outer diameter of the rim of the second tubular fuselage portion to be connected to the first tubular fuselage portion, deducting a jointing tolerance, The rims of the tubular fuselage portion to be connected are provided with radial bores to accommodate connection screws, Clamp segments are mounted in the second tubular fuselage portion along the inner circumference thereof. The clamp segments define threaded bores, connection screws being screwed into these threaded bores.

Tube connection, in particular, for connecting two tubular fuselage

A hanger assembly for missiles, in which a hanger, with opposite carrying rails to guide the missile in a launcher, is connected to the missile by means of a screwed connection. The hanger is screwed from the outside, with screws to a enlargement or increased thickness portion (16,60). Preferably a clamp, provided with a enlargement or increased thickness portion surrounds the airframe (Zelle) of the missile and is fixed thereto. The screw connection of the hanger is effected with screws the axes of which form an angle with the plane of the carrying rails.

Hanger assembly for missiles

In a tube connection, particularly for connecting two tubular elements of the airframe of a substantially tubular a missile, the tubular elements to be interconnected have end portions of substantially identical shapes. Each end portion has a smaller-diameter first circumferential section extending through substantially 180.degree. and a larger-diameter second circumferential section also extending through substantially 180.degree.. The larger-diameter circumferential section of each tubular element overlies the smaller-diameter circumferential section of the other tubular element. The circumferential sections are provided with radial bores for connection screws. Arcuate elements having threaded bores are arranged inside the thus interconnected circumferential sections. These threaded bores are aligned with the radial bores of the circumferential sections and threadedly receive the connecting screws.
