This book aims to provide a complete exposure about armaments from their design to launch from the combat aircraft. The book details modern ammunition and their tactical roles in warfare. The proposed book discusses aerodynamics, propulsion, structural as well as navigation, control, and guidance of aircraft armament. It also introduces the various types of ammunition developed by different countries and their changing trends. The book imparts knowledge in the field of design, and development of aircraft armaments to aerospace engineers and covers the role of the United Nations in peacekeeping and disarmament. The book will be very useful to researchers, students, and professionals working in design and manufacturing of aircraft armaments. The book will also serve air force and naval aspirants, and those interested in working on defence research and developments organizations. 



Dr. Mrinal Kaushik is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at IIT Kharagpur, India. He has earned his Ph.D, M.Tech and B.Tech degrees all in Aerospace Engineering from IIT Kanpur, India. His primary area of expertise is experimental supersonic aerodynamics with the current focus on Active and Passive Control of Shock-Boundary Layer Interactions and Active and Passive Control of Jets & Base Flows. His other research includes experimental investigations on Aerothermodynamics of Hypersonic Vehicles and Hydrodynamics of Hydrofoils. For his contributions in technology, he has received 'Young Researcher Award' from Venus International Foundation (India) in 2015. Dr. Kaushik's biography is included in the prestigious database 'Marquis Who's Who World' in 2016.

Dr. Prashanth Reddy Hanmaiahgari is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at IIT Kharagpur, India. He has obtained his Ph.D and M.Tech degrees in Civil Engineering from IIT Madras, India. Dr. Reddy has also worked as post-doctoral fellow in the reputed universities at USA and Canada for several years. He works in the domain of computational and experimental hydrodynamics. His research is multidisciplinary and involves fluid mechanics across mechanical and civil engineering. Dr. Hanmaiahgari's biography is included in the prestigious database 'Marquis Who's Who World' in 2010.
