    Field experts and Engineers, Please chime in your two cents on video corrections and further explanations on this comment so that people can learn more. Some things were omitted or simplified not to overcomplicate the production of the video and also the content itself, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't know about it. Thank you in advance.

      Your description of proportional navigating was spot on, but there were some slight mislabellings in the graphics. The secondary mirror IS the gyroscope in the version shown. The entire optical assembly, that you correctly animated tilting, is spinning the whole time. This is how it stays pointed at the target during the proportional navigation. If the target bearing moves, a force is required to change the orientation of the optical assembly to re-centre it and this command is also fed back to the control system to drive the fin actuators.

      Your explanation of the rollerons was quite clear, but the animation shows them pivoting the wrong way to correct the clockwise roll. They need to pivot in the same direction as the roll, to generate torque in the opposite direction and cancel the roll. If you think through their spinning-gyroscope operation, and recall that they’re rolling backward, not forward like bicycle wheels on the ends of the fins, their movements will become clear.

      If the shutter disc actually is constructed the way it is shown in the video, then the claim that frequency of the light pattern passing through it changes with how far from the center it passes is wrong. The shutter disc will block the light a specific number of times per second, and as long as the RPM stays constant the number of times per second the light will be blocked (ie the frequency) will be the same. I suspect you just made something up here because you don't know how it works.
      Both you and I would prosper if an expert could explain the actual conversion of the angles of incoming light into control signals.
      What is the function of the "shutter disc"?
      What is the structure of the optical sensor (a "quadrature detector" or some such?)

      ​@@davebowman6497This is in fact how it works. The seeker doesn't "see" a shape, it detects a spot of higher IR brightness. When the spot is sufficiently close to the center it will always have some part "visible" through the disk. When it's not centered the seeker only detects it intermittently. This is why there are three tones; seeking (hiss or low buzz), target detected (buzz), and locked (beep).

Most of the signal processing was done by using multiple windings in the casing surrounding the gyro/spinning telescope assembly. One set of windings drove the gyroscope, another could be driven to cause the telescope to change view angle, one sensed the position of the telescope, and a fourth provided pulses that could be used to steer the fins.

    I have seen an old sidewinder up close (late 80's). What wasn't mentioned was that the Rollerons were stored inside the hinged surfaces so they don't flap around when the missile is carried around on the aircraft.
    They were sitting loaded and popped out, to the position showed on the video, to activate only after the missile was fired off the rail.
    The release mechanism was even better as they had a strong holding each pair of opposite rollerons stopped. The string was going across the rocket motor exhaust. So when the pilot fired the missile, burner through the strings (looked like a cross) and released the rollerons.

    • @VFrozzen
      @VFrozzen 18 днів тому +1

      i always wondered how would they work when they are carried by the aircraft, were they always spinning? but that could make some unnecessary wear on the rollerons so i ended up thinking, well, maybe they were made heavy enough so they wont be spinning all the time, i thought that since the aircraft never goes as fast as the missiles do so maybe the air that was going trough them wasnt enough to make them spin but i always had that question, this is something you dont find easily even on the internet, thanks for the knowledge.

      @Braydan789 2 місяці тому

      I believe it could be possible to use the phase difference of the signal, as in you generate a signal that oscillates at the same frequency as the conical scanner speed and then detect the difference is phase between the detected signal and the reference oscillator signal, because the scanner is moving upwards on lets say the right side and downwards on the left, thus depending on which side the enemy aircraft is of the missile the phase difference will be leading or lagging depending on whether the aircraft is on the left or right side. The same method could be used for top and bottom as well.

    I thought it knew where it is by because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation.
    The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.

    Reticle is wrong. Half of it should be fully black. That's how aircraft angular position is detected, by waveform phase not the conic scan. That's for searching for a potential target and tracking it. Also, radial position changes modulation amplitude not the frequency.

      You're absolutely right, that's my bad. The reticle should be black on one side. I simplified it for the sake of the animation. It also helps with background noise like clouds and countering flares.

    This video has some real weird claims in it:
    Claims that if the light passes the spinning "shutter disc" close to the center, the frequency will be higher than if it passes further out. Either the depiction of the spinning disc is wrong or this claim is fslse.
    When discussing the warhead it is said that the explosives are at the center of the warhead. Yet the graphics shows a hollow center and the explodives surrounding the center.
    When explaining the rollerons the rolleron movement to compensate for an unwanted roll is shown in the wrong direction. Looking from behind, the missile rolls clockwise. The compensation move of the rolleron, as shown, would increase the unwanted toll rather than mitigate it.
    Anyone thinking they are enlightened by this video should rethink that.

      😂😂, they actually used to test the missile with a flashlight if it works correctly before launch, and it was said it used to lock-on to cigarettes when it was being developed in the office. But once it locks on to an aircraft it's not likely for a burning wood to fool it.

    An ok explanation of proportional navigation. Misses a lot of fundamentals but aleast its mentioned and you didnt give the crappy “oh and the flight computer computes the intercept course” (which isnt informative and leaves people scratching their heads on HOW it achieves said task. PN = delta(global theta of target) * gain. Tpn which is better is TPN = delta(global theta of target * distance * gain. And so on. You have APN, EPN, ZEMAPN, ZEM, ZEMEPN. There are tons of formulas to calculate an optimal interception course.
