ABSTRACT:
A method of aligning an aircraft fuselage axis with an air or ground targ while maintaining a predetermined flight path, involves turning the fuselage around the yaw axis and the transverse axis relative to the flight path. In performing the fuselage turn a side-slip angle is effected by vertical rudder control and superposed thereon is an oppositely directed roll angle. The actuation of the flight control for the fuselage turn is coupled with the fire control system of the aircraft.
