The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't, by subtracting where it is, from where it isn't, or where it isn't, from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance sub-system uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is, to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position where it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event of the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has required a variation. The variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too, may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computance scenario works as follows: Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is, however it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subracts where it should be, from where it wasn't, or vice versa. By differentiating this from the algebraic sum og where it shouldn't be, and where it was. It is able to obtain a deviation, and a variation, which is called "air".

FINALLY, I'M SORRY FOR HAVING THIS AMOUNT OF DEVIATIONS ( PLS GET ME HELP ON HOW TO CREDIT OR I'LL INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF REMOVING IT )

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
I guess the removal of this post is a no-go...
@WarHawk95 you mean it could be any cruise missile that's launched from the ground?
@Unnamed the originbal isn't even a tomahawk but a Ground Launched Cruise Missile (GLCM)
I OPPOSE THIS POST BECAUSE IT ISN'T A TOMAHAWK. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IT ISN'T. BY LOOKING THROUGH THE SCREENSHOTS, I KNOW IT IS A DIFFERENCE OR DEVIATION FROM THE ORIGINAL TOMAHAWK MISSILE. MY GUIDANCE SUBSYSTEM USES DEVIATIONS TO GENERATE DEFECTIVE COMMANDS TO DRIVE MY HAND FROM A POSITION THAT IT IS TO A POSITION THAT IT ISN'T, AND ARRIVING AT A POSITION THAT IT WASN'T THAT IT NOW IS. CONSEQUENTLY, THE POSITION WHERE IT IS , IS NOW THE POSITION THAT IT WASN'T , AND IT FOLLOWS THAT THE POSITION WHERE IT WAS , IS NOW THE POSITION THAT IT ISN'T .
(LONG STORY SHORT; I INTEND TO DELETE IT AFFIRMATION FROM A DEV PlS [OR ANYONE] )
