Derives the kinematic relations among the three bodies (missile, target and counterweapon) in closed form under the asymptotic approximation of constant bearing trajectories (collision courses). It is shown that the defending target, even if moving, can still determine the optimum course for its counterweapon when range and speed of the attacking vehicle are unknown. A simple relation is derived for the ratio between the attacker target range (and time to impact) at counterweapon launch and the range at interception of the attacker by the counterweapon. Normalised curves are presented for some representative cases of defence by a counterweapon of known speed against a torpedo or missile attack on a moving target.
