In this paper, a new guidance method for surface to surface ballistic missiles without mandatory engine cut-off will be presented. The complexity of solid fuel engine cut-off demands a comprehensive method for guiding these missiles. In the method presented in this paper, a certain guidance law is applied such that by transmitting appropriate commands to the control system, by changing the missile's path and also through wasting additional fuel energy, the missile velocity will be equal to the desired one at the end of the burning time. The results of the simulation indicate that the aforementioned guidance method is quite effective and practical with long-range missiles having thrust vector control.
