ABSTRACT:
A projectile reaction control system includes a nozzle assembly in which the efflux exhausted thereby may be controlled in a continuously variable fashion. In one example control is by means of a slidable piston so that the thrust developed by the nozzle assembly is substantially linearly dependent on the displacement of the piston, whereby the reaction control system may be controlled by an autopilot with little or no modification.
