common sources, as shown in Fig. 9.27. The gas used for turbogenerator
driving Sparrow series is separated from the gas used for hydraulic power
boosting of seeker antenna, as shown in Fig. 9.26.
3. Cold air source. The cooling turbogenerator used by Sam 3 (SA-3) and Sam
6 (SA-6) is co-source with the cold air steering gear, as shown in Fig. 9.25,
while the separate cold air source is very rare in air defense missiles.
4. Electric source. The French rattlesnake is a common source. The battery on
the missile provides unified power supply to the electrical equipment of the
whole missile, including the electric steering gear, as shown in Fig. 9.23.
The American Patriot, on the other hand, operates separately from the
electric variable displacement pump by dedicated batteries, as shown in
Fig. 9.28.
