What you will learn

On successful completion of the course you will be able to:

• Describe the key threats to aerial platforms from hostile actions and the technologies or strategies, which may be used to counter them,
• Evaluate the role of different approaches to enhancing airframe and crew survivability, including threat avoidance, defensive aids, physical protection and damage mitigation,
• Evaluate the role of electromagnetic detectors and effectors in defensive aids suites,
• Formulate and critically appraise a system of defence including a range of technologies designed to avoid, defeat or mitigate threats to aerial platforms.

Core content

• Introduction, anti-aircraft systems and survivability
  An introduction to the aerial threat environment and the key responses to threats. This will include an overview of military threats and the key operational and technical challenges.
• Threats to aerial systems: Missiles and smart munitions
  An introduction to the threats posed by guided weapons including man portable air defence systems (MANPADS), ship and ground launched guided missiles, and radar- controlled guns.
• Terminal ballistics
  Introduction to terminal ballistics covering the key mechanisms of penetration and damage produced by high velocity projectiles including fragments and bullets.
• Avoiding the threat: Stealth
  Technology for the reduction of electromagnetic signature (radar thermal, etc.) including design and materials issues.
• Sensors and threat detection
  Sensor systems for threat detection and avoidance including enhanced situational awareness, battlefield id (IFF).
• Defensive aids suites
  Missile countermeasures; missile counter-countermeasures; missile approach warning systems; direct IR countermeasure systems (DIRCM).
• Resisting the threat: Vulnerability assessment
  Tools and techniques for assessment of aircraft vulnerability, including modelling analysis and optimisation processes.
