The AGM-84E SLAM (Standoff Land Attack Missile) was a subsonic, over-the-horizon air-launched cruise missile that was developed by McDonnell Douglas from the AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missile. [2] The SLAM was designed to provide all-weather, day and night, precision attack capabilities against stationary high-value targets [ 1 ] as well as ...
Selectable Lightweight Attack Munition or (M2/M3/M4 SLAM) is a small United States multi-purpose landmine produced by ATK Precision Fuze Company in Janesville, Wisconsin from 1992 to 2002. [1] It has a passive infrared sensor , and a magnetic influence sensor which allow it to be used as a demolition munition, off-route mine, or full width ...
The Supersonic Low Altitude Missile or SLAM was a U.S. Air Force nuclear weapons project conceived around 1955, and cancelled in 1964. SLAMs were conceived of as unmanned nuclear-powered ramjets capable of delivering thermonuclear warheads deep into enemy territory. [ 1 ]
The S-3B Viking was also able to launch and control the SLAM-ER. The South Korean Air Force's version of the F-15E Strike Eagle, the F-15K Slam Eagle, has been capable of launching and controlling the SLAM-ER since 2006 in test exercises. [12] In 2020, a proposal was put to Congress to allow the sale of the SLAM-ER to Taiwan. [13]
Entered service (estimated) in 1968. Essentially the same as the 3BM9 projectile with a tungsten carbide plug. [citation needed]Country of origin: Soviet Union; Projectile dimension: 410 mm 10: 1 L/d
The Taylor knock-out factor, also called Taylor KO factor or TKOF, is a formulaic mathematical approach for evaluating the stopping power of hunting cartridges, developed by John "Pondoro" Taylor in the middle of the 20th century.
2005 DARPA Grand Challenge winner Stanley performed SLAM as part of its autonomous driving system. A map generated by a SLAM Robot. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of constructing or updating a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of an agent's location within it.
The mathematical formulas that equate to the results of the flight computer wind calculator are as follows: (desired course is d , ground speed is V g , heading is a , true airspeed is V a , wind direction is w , wind speed is V w .
