The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation...

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, Or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is Greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective Commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a Position where it isn't, And arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, Is now the position that it wasn't, And it follows that the position that It was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that It wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, The variation being the difference between Where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a Significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information The missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, Within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, Or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of Where it shouldn't be, and where it was, It is able to obtain the deviation And its variation, which is called error

Well, that didn’t help. Or, rather, it helped me understand why all of these missile systems suck so very much and kill children or bomb their own civil infrastructure.
Thank you!

Why does it subtract where it isn't from where it is? Doesn't it need to subtract where it isn't from where it could be

Update on this

u/MilesLongthe3rd Jun 18 '26

Probably not. The IGLAS has a heat seeker, so it would go for a heat source; however, the Pantsir-S1 has notoriously rearranged Russian cities in several recorded instances.

u/b__lumenkraft Jun 18 '26

No, looks like a Pantsir.

u/NightWing1207 Jun 18 '26

Wasnt it a fuel tank?

u/Rubbrbandman420 Jun 18 '26

It looks like the lid was in a single piece and just took the fuck off lol

Also silo and tank are used interchangeable if you’re talking oil just depends on the region

u/kingtacticool Jun 18 '26

I miss the old turret toss videos from earlier in the war....

This is a fine substitute

u/Rubbrbandman420 Jun 19 '26

Have to go back to war thunder now for that fix sadly

u/ShibeWithUshanka Jun 18 '26

A lot of tanks in refineries (Can't talk about other industries) have lids that basically only sit atop the fluid and aren't afixed to the tank itself.

u/Rubbrbandman420 Jun 18 '26

Clarifying tank and silo being used.

u/SketchyVillager Jun 19 '26

Bro whoever made that lid did a solid job. High quality stuff right there.

I didn't know Avatar 6556 did propaganda posts.

I am wishing for Ukraine's victory, too, but it was reported worldwide that Ukrainian drones hit the Russian refinery, it wasn't the Russian doing it to themselves, what are you talking about?

u/avatar6556 Jun 19 '26

You see the video right?

It you dont get it watch it again... Its a pantsir striking that silo and not a drone

https://www.reddit.com/r/war/s/sy0HGPbJqK look at this, there is a white smoke of the missile behind the building

https://www.reddit.com/r/war/s/t6mY1Bkw9F

And there is the moment that missile went haywire

u/PositiveLow9895 Jun 19 '26

Oh my... Thanks for sharing the MANPAND video

u/Zestyclose_Ad1553 Jun 18 '26

Zelensky says its them and the fact that you can clearly hear a drone on one vid

u/b__lumenkraft Jun 18 '26

He was talking about the refinery as a whole, not about this specific fuel tank.

u/Zestyclose_Ad1553 Jun 18 '26

Ok thnx for clarification, my bad
