ABSTRACT:
A modular improved forward section and improved aft section containing an tive-control package are disclosed which can be retrofitted to existing sphere-cone geometry reentry bodies (RBs) and which will provide improved aerodynamic performance and deployment accuracy of the RBs independent of missile error sources and drop sequence. An aft section containing control electronics, a propulsion system and steering jets permits the improve RB to actively correct for attitude and velocity dispersions occurring throughout the flight profile.
