ABSTRACT:
The simplified homing system comprises an accelerometric device mounted directly on the missile structure and associated with discriminating means for delivering signals representative of the lateral acceleration .gamma..sub.ext of the missle due to outside forces and the centrifugal acceleration .gamma..sub.c due to the rolling; target detection means directly mounted on the missile structure; passive means ensuring the keeping up of the rolling movement of the missile; means for determining from information supplied by the accelerometric device and discriminating means and by target detection means the serviceable values related to the vector V indicating the relative speed of the missile with respect to the air in a reference system related to the missile and to the vector u.sub.c representing the direction of the target with respect to the axis of the missile and means for elaborating a guiding force F.sub.p from the said predetermined serviceable values related to the vectors V and u.sub.c.
