ABSTRACT:
A system for controlling the placement of a gun launched projectile adapted with a radial impulse motor incorporated into the projectile for imparting a thrust subsequent to launching and a receiver incorporated into the projectile for targeting information for determining the projectile trajectory and the projectile roll rate, roll position, and pitch, i.e., vertical reference; and a computer linked to the receiver and the radial impulse motor for determining the projectile trajectory and the projectile roll rate, roll position, and vertical reference time after launch of the projectile and angle of corrective vector to ignite the radial impulse motor to affect the trajectory of the projectile to land the projectile on a desired target.
