ABSTRACT:
A guided missile with ram jet drive, with an engine occupying the airframe cross section, with two outer air intakes in the lower area of the airframe, which lead to the tail with wake shafts, with a tail plane including four separately pivotable vanes in the form of a diagonal cross. A rigid wing arrangement is provided in or in front of the center of the missile. One drive unit with linear movement is provided for each vane. Two of the drive units are arranged longitudinally offset in the longitudinal and circumferential directions of the guided missile in each wake shaft. A kinematic connection from the drive unit to the lower vane is formed by a coupling rod each with joints at both ends. A kinematic connection from the drive unit to the upper vane is formed by a pivotable double lever each and a coupling rod with ball joints at both ends.
