ABSTRACT:
A rocket catapult ejection system for a seat-occupant mass of a disabled craft in which the rocket motor has an annular nozzle throat defined by a spherical pintle and an adjustable nozzle housing. Axial adjustment of the nozzle housing will displace the centroid of the nozzle throat and adjust the rocket thrust vector to compensate for deviations in the occupant-seat mass center of gravity.
