Abstract: The range formula of free flight section of ballistic missile is derived by using the elliptic equation. When the initial velocity of the free flight section is given,the maximum range and corresponding trajectory inclination angle are deduced by the range formula. And several examples of estimating ballistic parameters are given.

Key words: ballistic missile, elliptic orbit, range, trajectory inclination angle
