 | | In the Bloodhound model five axes had to be resolved, yaw, pitch and roll of the missile relative to the earth and azimuth and elevation of the sight line relative to the missile. |
 | | Bloodhound was quite different, being of monoplane configuration employing twist-and-steer control rather like a normal aircraft, except it had no rudder and the elevator and aileron motions were achieved by rotating the main wings, both together and differentially. |
 | | Excluding those missiles which developed faults in flight, the engagement geometry obtained from the Woomera firing trials results was, in every case, easily recognisable as a possible member of the distribution given by the model, and in some cases the small sample of firing results was shown to give a misleading impression of missile performance. |
