ABSTRACT:
The invention describes a target approach procedure for a guided, mobile missile for use against ground targets, particularly bridges, roads, rail junctions, hangars, shelters, command posts, harbor installations as well as ships, in which the missile is released at a great distance from the target and flies automatically to the target, with guidance by parallel lines that characterize ground structures, and hits it from the most favorable approach direction.
