In this paper, trajectory optimization for long-range air-launched gliding vehicles using convex programming is proposed. The dynamics is reformulated to compact form and converted to SOCP problem. Furthermore, the robust convergence is accomplished using the adaptive trust-region method. The proposed method demonstrated rapid and stable convergence of SCP with a crude initial guess.
