METHOD OF GUIDED MISSILE LAUNCHING AND DEVICE FOR ITS REALIZATION Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: rocketry. SUBSTANCE: the method consists in missile acceleration by means of engine with simultaneous spin-up of it by means of engine and aerodynamic surfaces. The spin-up moment produced by engine is decreased in the process of missile acceleration. The method is accomplished by missile having an engine with nozzles and oblique aerodynamic surfaces. The supersonic components of the nozzles are made of eroding material. The axes of these components of the nozzles are shifted relative to the nozzle throats to the direction opposite to missile spinning. EFFECT: reduced spread of the value of angular velocity of missile spinning, enhanced accuracy of missile control in the boost phase. 2 cl, 4 dwg
