ABSTRACT:
An artillery rocket including a motor for the launching thereof into a ballistic trajectory across a specified target area over which a payload is to be released. The rocket is equipped with a flight controller or autopilot for the control over a rudder or control surface-setting or control system which is actuatable from a navigational receiver with actual positional coordinates. The flight controller operates on a control or setting system which is disposed in front of the warhead in the forward region of the nose cone without noticeably restricting the usable volume for the warhead.
