Abstract
A regulating system for guided ammunition flying at supersonic speed, such as missiles, rockets, or projectiles which includes an arrangement for effecting the guidance through a partially changeable flow pressure. Provided on the ammunition are one or more steering systems in the form of ring-shaped or quasi-annular guidance mechanisms which are divided into sectors, and wherein the sectors cause a medium which become effective within the sectors to selectively and controllably block the airflow.
