ABSTRACT:
An on-board guidance system for a flying body, such as a cruise missile, includes a radar device for a self-sufficient scanning of the topography during flight. Scanning antennas provide signals for evaluation and further application in a search and guide logic circuit. An on-board computer calculates an exact horizon angle which is used as an altitude guide or control value.
