This study focuses on vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) unmanned aircraft, examining the impact of air-launched missile releases on the system. The release process not only disrupts the system's symmetric structure but also alters its mass and inertia parameters. To address these challenges, the study introduces a model to analyze the effects of missile releases and incorporates a wind turbulence model to evaluate aircraft performance under various scenarios. The study focusses on understanding the impact of missile release on UAV performance, particularly under realistic turbulence conditions that are critical for VTOL operations.
