Abstract

The present disclosure is concerned with a method for searching a search area, a missile, and a missile formation. According to the method, in each case at least one radar is arranged in at least two missiles, wherein the method involves: determining a total search time for searching the search area, splitting the search area into at least two search subareas, and searching the at least two search subareas by means of the respective radar of the at least two missiles. The at least two missiles carry out the searching cooperatively, wherein the search subareas are chosen such that a detection probability is maximized.
