A fuse for an antiballistic missile including a generator of two conical beams, each directed at a different, predetermined angle to the missile axis and including a plurality of range gates. A signal processor senses target intercept with the beams and range gates and calculates target miss distance and crossing angle. The fuse includes circuitry to detonate selected detonators for generating a fragment pattern directed toward the sensed target position.

A fuze for an anti-ballistic missile having a charge with a plurality of independent detonators and a fragment layer, said fuze comprising: means for actively generating at least two conical beams concentric with an axis of a missile, each said beam being generated at a different, predetermined angle to said axis and including a plurality of range gates at predetermined distances from said missile; signal processing means for sensing target intercept of said beams and for calculating miss distance between a target and said missile and crossing angle of said target to the axis of said missile; and means for actuating selected detonators in response to target miss distance and crossing angle to generate a selected fragment pattern directed toward said target.
