ABSTRACT
The Tactical Air Launched Decoy (TALD) is a single stage rocket without warhead as
a payload. TALD is an air launched, preprogrammed, unpowered, glide chaff, RF
passive, or RF active vehicle used to deceive and saturate enemy integrated air
defenses during strike aircraft operations. It used in offensive operations against
enemy air defense system by diluting and confusing surface-based and airborne
defenses with realistic tactical target characteristics.
INTRODUCTION
SPECIFICATION
The basic TALD is an expendable unpowered glide vehicle with a square section
fuselage, flip-out wings, and three tail surfaces. It has a digital flight control system
which can be preprogrammed with various speed and manoeuvering profiles.
Launched from high-altitude (max. 12200 m (40000 ft)), the TALD has a glide range
of up to 126 km (68 nm), while the range at lower altitudes of about 600 m (2000 ft)
is still around 26 km (14 nm).
2.34 m (7 ft 8 in)
1.55 m (5 ft 1 in)
180 kg (400 lb)
Up to Mach 0.8 (460 km/h, 250 kt)
126 km (78 mi) - (Over 300 km (185 mi) for the ADM-141C)
Teledyne CAE J700-CA-400 turbojet, 790 N (177 lbf) on ADM141C only
The TALD vehicle is compatible with TER/MER/I-TER launch equipment, and does
not require any modifications in the delivery aircraft. the TALD vehicle with the radar
decoy payload (TALDr) employs a forward passive augmentor payload mounted in
the nose cone. an active rf electronic repeater system, consisting of receiving and
transmitting antennae and separate band amplifiers can be installed if required. the
TALD vehicle with the chaff payload (TALDc) contains a packaged chaff payload and
a dispensing system which will disperse chaff, package-by-package, with several
dispersion rates.
The TALD is of a modular design, permitting easy reconfigurations between the
TALDR and TALDC versions, utilizing appropriate payloads. It comprises the
following major subsystems/assemblies:
strong back (upper fuselage) with hinged vehicl suspension lugs, wings and
wing actuation system;
electronic assembly/digital flight control system (autopilot/programmer
computer, servo and initiation circuitry bite etc.) and associated vehicle power
supply (batteries);
empennage assembly with 'the necessary stabilizing an,[- flight control
surfaces and actuator assemblies;
CONCLUSION
TALD/ ITALD are a modern strategic warfare currently used and developed by
United State (US) and Israel. Its ability to saturated enemy air defence had been
proved during US attack against Iraq. If we manage to developed and study this
technology, imagine what the possible outcome that we can harvested. With the
study of this technology we can develop anti-TALD system to protect our air defence
from enemy threat.
