ABSTRACT:
A method for improving the stability and trajectory of a missile launched from a submarine traveling underwater by positioning the venting means adjacent the nose cone so that a blanket of air is formed on the leeward side of the missile (relative to the direction the submarine is traveling) allowing the missile to be launched while the submarine is traveling near or at patrol speeds without slowing down much if at all.
