Abstract

The article deals with the issues related to calculation of the missile flight velocity in the coast phase of flight taking into account the weight and drag changing according to the square law. An analytic expression of the missile flight velocity in the function of the velocity vector angle is obtained. The analytic dependence given in the article is of practical interest for identification of missile flight trajectory.
