A nonlinear adaptive flight control system for an endo-atmospheric dual-actuator interceptor is developed in this thesis. First, the flight performance and the inherent dynamics of the interceptor are analyzed, based on a simulation model. Thereafter, the control methodology Backstepping is introduced and further developed to be utilized for the control of the interceptor. Starting from specific performance requirements, the interceptor flight control system is designed and implemented. The control parameters are derived by employing an optimization algorithm. Finally, the flight control system is evaluated against the performance requirements in various test cases.
