Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a device used to bend the end of the trajectory of a rocket in the desired plane without making costly and complicated servo-control mechanisms necessary. A cardan type assembly is formed by a section of the projectile and an internal frame, a gyrostat being mounted in the internal frame. The section carries the control instrument. The device can thus be used to keep the control instrument in a stable roll position throughout the trajectory. It is thus possible to bend the trajectory in a defined direction so as to attack targets from the top with high precision. The device can be adapted to infantry rockets, aeronautical rockets and in general, to short-range projectiles.
