ABSTRACT:
A control system for providing directional control to a missile during bo phase operation. The kinetic energy of the propellant exhaust gases is utilized to pump a vacuum in an annulus located around the rocket nozzle. To provide a reaction force to guide the missile, a closure is removed from one of several reaction nozzles located around the periphery of the aft end of the rocket and in communication with the vacuum chamber and the atmosphere. A thrust is generated by the air flowing through the reaction nozzle, into the vacuum chamber responsive to opening predetermined reaction nozzles.
