Abstract
This work concerns a technique to be used in the solution of optimal
trajectory problems associated with kinetic energy weapons. In this
problem, it is desired to solve for a control function (which might be
thrust magnitude and direction of a gimbaled engine) in time in order to minimize time to intercept an enemy missile.
